Making the discussion threads by Oleg & Luthier Invite only

It's a sorry state of affairs, but the number of stupid arguments or frankly rude and offensive questions that are put to both Oleg and Luthier doesn't seem to be going away.

I'd like to suggest that the threads are put to invite only, and people can request an invite to post. If they then behave like assholes, the invite can be rescinded.

My hope is that this can reduce the moderators' workloads and prevent obnoxious posters from spoiling the forum for everyone else.

It has been so long since I read something idiotic and ignorant like this

Maybe Oleg also can give certificates who can fly the simulation and who cant?
