Are you... serious?

Dali aside, whilst it is tempting, I think it would require a larger modding team than Neal, Jim and Steve to process the amount of posts in GT per day, not to mention that it would stifle the free flow of discussion and debate and would provide very much a headache as to what is permitted and what is not in regards to the rules and how much leeway a poster gets before being brigged or keelhauled.
I do see where you're coming from Platapus, and it would also declutter some threads, but honestly, I don't think it would work and would cause a pretty big backlash.

Ultimately it's up to Neal though, but I don't think it's something he'd go for either.

Imagine the 4 word story game, someone places a post, and while it sits waiting to be approved others don't realize this and they post as well. What a mess!!!

Agreed and if it isn't broken, it doesn't need fixing.
