Yeah I'm going to have to join too. I'm fed up of thinking "That collab sounds ace" and having a good idea for it but then seeing the authors are just letting anyone in. So I'll sign your petition but I reckon you should also have to have a 3:00+ bating average to join.

I must say I'm not a fervent visitor of the Flash forum but I do understand the problem you're talking about.
The problem with the B/A nowadays is that it's too easy to have high one. Just submit 3 good flashes and you're in. Even co-author would do, I think.
But I'll sign your petition if it makes you happy: Add me =P
