What would modding fix though News? There is still numptiness regardless. I think you probably need to have a search function and PM before you can consider a full frontal on modding. That allows you to exercise more control and take some of these out of public and into private (along with another thread on 
or angst cause someone could not search)
And I respect I would be one of the first in line for a boot in the ass too and I have well deserved it.
Search on the coming soon radar as well as a couple of mod enhancements. PMs not so sure.
