I will suggest you to develop some alternative method of mechanism for your case instead of relying on forum.(Forum is slow in implementing features.)
Reasons and some limitations of SMF. It is why Epochtalk developed.
None of these ideas are new to me. Even if I don't respond to suggestions, I do read them, and they float around in my mind going forward. If it's not already done, then there's some reason why. A big possible reason is that I'm the only person who does development on the current code, and my time is limited. Another big reason is that this is a huge forum with complex dynamics, and even small policy changes can have big effects which need to be thought through very carefully.
