Suggestion: Referee Verification
I have noticed a lot of threads that should be referee-only, and it makes me angry to think of people who know nothing about FRC refereeing having a say in clearly referee-only matters.
I have never volunteered at an FRC event myself (being something of a "virginteer"), because I have never been able to make the time commitment. But at least I occasionally check my virginteer privileges! I can be on an FRC field without having to know the rules! Or attend an FRC event without being expected to talk to people! Or, god forbid, be expected to please two groups of around ninety people each every ten minutes! (Although, I have seen threads where referees are considering putting in the effort to be perfect, but most of them just can't be bothered)
I propose we create a system for Chief Delphi where referees and mods can mark threads as referee only, and only accounts recognized as referees can comment. In order to keep things "open", other users can view and "post reply's", but their input will be ignored and a bot will reply by quoting their input and kindly pointing out virginteers have no right to comment on matters which they cannot even fathom. In order to be registered as a referee, they could either submit a picture to a mod of them in a black-and-white vertical-striped shirt or have another referee add them.
EDIT: /Sarcasm
