A Suggestion
 

In order to reduce the multiple threads of the same subject due to requests, I would suggest that junior members not be allowed to make requests until they become full members; in other words, not until they do some posting.
I've recently noticed tons of requests for some of the more popular/famous women of the net. Instead of spending time browsing through OCC, new juniors just make a request and use up valuable bandwidth.
Just my two cents worth.
