I'd like to see another ability implemented for newbie helpers. They should be
able to 'newbie-ban' people from newbie channel for 5-10 mins at a time. Too
often newbies (and certain midbies) generate too much spam on the channel on
totally unrelated topics. With this 'newbie-ban' a person's messages meant to
go on newbie channel would get automatically transferred to chat channel. Of
course abuse would be punishable, etc.
It's nice to see that people are worried about behaving in newbie channel. I
would also worry about people giving right answer, yes this includes you
newbie helpers.

What is wrong with right answers?

then give those, don't give your poor assumptions that are wrong.
