although the floating moderator power is kind of a neat feature. I dont think it would work here....but it is kinda cool.

Yes. The moderator thing, and the flexibility of how you can view replies (e.g., highest-rated first, threaded, nested, flat, etc.) are the neat features I long to see on FR. That's the only reason I asked about it. As far as it handling the FR volume, I don't know...Slashdot does get a lot of traffic (so much so that links to other sites from there often result in the linked-to site becoming unusable).
