Precisely! I have been running a BBS for 8 years. I have no
interest whatever in the average user. In general, my system
has 50 to 100 users who have been active in the last few months,
and that is plenty.
Waffle's interface is sorta like an employment application - while
it's no darned good at helping to find good people, it can separate
the chaff.
