FYAD isn't what it used to be, but I agree that it's part of what made SA great. Not necessarily the actual content of FYAD, but the fact that it kept everyone outside of FYAD in check. The other forums did a great job of keeping the post quality high (no AOL speak, etc.), and FYAD did a great job of making sure they didn't get too full of themselves. Even if you were the most popular poster ever, there was always one forum that you would never, ever be accepted in.
