If you owned DP, what would you change?

    So DP members, if you had full control over DP and could make any changes you want, what would they be? Would you even change anything at all?

    Personally I would allow members to change username, but have a limit (say 3 times) and also have a username history (to prevent scammers etc.)

    Discuss!

    I'm not talking about if you'd really buy it or not...just pretend you did. :)

    I would turn it into a politics and religion debate forum ONLY.

    ...and maybe some sports chat.

    Which would pretty much mean DP would lose 90% of its active members. :p

    If I owned DP, I would not make many changes, maybe remove some mods which have not logged in since ages and get some more mods

    Yeah, I'd definitely monetize this biznatch, probably with impression ads and not adsense. Maybe with sponsor based ads too, with contests and stuff.

    Also, I'd get this monster hosted on blackmesh and iron out that database error that always happens.

    If I am the owner of DP, first thing I will do is searching the thread where I can find some members who imagine they are the owner of my forums and ban them all!!!
