I don’t get why you’re being sarcastic about this…

Sometimes people start flame wars, usually involving only 2 or 3 people, putting them in queue would prevent the forum from being flooded in the hours when a mod is not present.

People would be put in the queue only until the flame (or whatever other reason they’ve been moderated for) has passed.

If a flame is going on in the category I am responsible for, I would want to put in queue the people only in the categories (or a specific category) I control.
