How about for advanced discussion you have to be at least 30 and actually been a hired paid coach of a sprinter. I think that might be a good idea, then you might actually get some good discussion, granted there maybe only be about 10 people who would be able to discuss then.
Right, except that you wouldn’t be able to post then (as you do, quite often), among many other members. Why must someone be a paid coach and over 30? How does that solve anything? I could get one of my overweight friends to pay me 2 dollars a month to help him sprint, be 40 years old 350lbs and sit on a couch all day drinking beer. Yet, I’m suddenly allowed to post in advanced? Doesn’t make sense to me…
The rep system works, it’s a good idea. If someone with less reps is contributing a lot of solid material than so be it…if they’re posting stuff that is false and misleading…well then there’s a problem but most people would phish them out very quickly.
