Bob,
What constituency are you trying to serve by these draconian measures?
This is a hobby, after all. We are trying to bring new people into it.
CQWW has been around for a very, very long time without all this
foolishness.
Maybe the top ten percent are complaining? However, without the other
90%, you won't have a contest you'll be happy with.
