Use the score file, I have ppl I read|reply to scored around numbers, NSP
admins I have to converse with in low sig2noise groups are 6500 [so there
are 6496,7,8,9...so on] and like that. The score file is one of the single
best part of pan.

Use filters to do cleaning up and general stuff and the score can be fine
tuned over time to really make groups easy to read.
