Why not use existing symbology - rank badges? C'mon, we all love having our rank badge talked to, don't we?

Perhaps we could also have some sort of filter facility where you could filter out comments made by people of insufficient rank - call it the Your Ideas Don't Matter button? The programmers shouldn't have too much trouble making it work, as there are working models up and down the RAF that they can copy.

The naughty enlisted people could then hack into the button and create their own: Visiting Air Rank Button, which would filter out everyone above or below Sgt, depending on your career interest level.

In the mean time Boscombe could be commissioned to adapt the filter for use by the air ranks, allowing them to post without having to read anyone elses thoughts, because they just know how it is. I thought the Train to Glasgow button was a good working title.
