Thank you FTI, for your time and effort.
I have copied and posted the tools that are available to the thread starter.
Thread Permissions
Introduction
The starter of a thread has two ways to limit the members who can post in their thread. First, they can set a vouch hurdle (see WVS). For example, if the thread-starter sets the vouch hurdle to "3 vouchers," only members who have three vouchers will be able to post in the thread. Additionally, the http://www.forexfactory.com/images/misc/3kt.gif icon would be displayed at the top of the thread to denote the thread's hurdle.
The second option allows the thread-starter to block members who are on his or her Ignore List. When enabled, this option stops any member on the thread-starters Ignore List from posting in the thread. Members who are blocked from a thread are only listed on the thread-starter's Ignore List, which is not known publicly.
To add or edit your thread's permissions, click "Thread Tools" at the top of your thread, then click "Edit Thread Options."
Purpose of Permissions
The purpose of the vouch hurdle is to enable the thread-starter to choose the experience level of their thread's participants. If an advanced trader wants to debate an idea with other advanced traders, without interjection by less experienced participants, it can be acomplished by setting a high vouch hurdle. Likewise, if a trader wants to explore the details of a concept, without getting sidetracked by educational discussion, a vouch hurdle might come in handy. Novice traders might even set a vouch hurdle when asking a question to ensure the answers will only be coming from experienced traders. There are multiple uses for the vouch hurdle and the thread-starter is free to use the feature however they want.
The purpose of allowing thread-starters to block their Ignore List is to promote a productive trading environment. Every FF member has the right to trade in a peaceful and positive atmosphere. If someone begins to annoy, harass, or attack a thread, the thread-starter can simply put the troublemaker on his Ignore List to bring the thread back to its productive state. Only the thread-starter knows who's blocked from the thread because Ignore Lists are not made public.
I try to remember that we are dealing with a new generation that grew up with instant gratification and Harry Potter novels. It is not totally their fault.
ps. please do not set the vouch level too high, I only have you and Dutch Angel. I could probably get Lusan if he has forgiven me.

The city thingy is private arrangement. its not a service to all their customers per say, only citi select. But lets see how citi pro fx develops, may be something there. Still too early to tell. But seems Deutchebank is coming into the fore. If they can prove not to be some white label of some bucket broking, may be something there. Well they now rank as the Kingpin, so they must carry their corp image properly.
