But that would just be dumb. The most a CK could do is delete all the threads/posts.

There are a couple other staff members who could theoretically run SQL queries, but they have no reason to do so and are very responsible.

The forums get backed up a few times a week as it is...

How about we rotate Senior Site Staff, Site Staff, Recognized Members and Former Staff as CK's for a day. At least you know we're halfway responsible!

Well, I for one think the point of the fake title should be the fake title. You know, a member goes around flashing his CK title but has no actual CK superpowers.

Why stop at a day? Let's ban Proto forever!

They need a scapegoat for their sins.

So he can complain about it, of course.
