Its up to you
Nothing I say needs to be private but whatever works for you, Flea.
That, or we could jus post on Discord hahaha.
Make it only member read if you wish.
That is also a way to get lurkers to register an account.

It should definitely be private because you frequently post a lot of stupid things and accidentally blow up the board when trying to figure out the admin panel.

Fash had a private lounge. I think you were a member. We basically stopped using it the last couple of years.

It seems rather severe that people have to hide behind anonymous handles because they feel too insecure to be themselves. And then they need another 'room' to feel secure. Gawd i thought that was an Asian disease/kinda thang.
Why not just eliminate guest handles altogether?
And those using multiple handles will be identified.
I just post under Joe. Joe here Joe everywhere.
Nothin phony bout me Erica. Im an open book.
Erica, if you do have a private board for normal posters, don't invite Joe.

Yeah you wanna go back to the old days of massive censorship & impersonation, Korean.
When your kind ruled the roost it was one shit forum.
Erica rescued tbc from its moribund state so that it could at least resemble a respectable forum, Korean.
Is there a little girl in this thread. I am practically drowning in tears from some senior citizen crybaby who is still butthurt because his hope of getting this forum shut down failed.

Awesome Idea, since this place is as one way as anything can be. Must be the reason so many of your loyal posters post at BF.
Your head is made of solid granite

Hell no. Joe stalked old Blurt. He is known by the RCMP for stalking just like his buddy, Eddie the Chug

Listen no offense but if you do create a private sub forum you are going to create an echo chamber and thus lose traffic... just being honest here. :howdy:

I was briefly a member of a private group. The shit that was discussed there aint the shit that gets posted on the boards. So, no it don't take away from the forum itself.

I really don't care one way or the other if there is a private club. I see them as an extension of messaging. If there is one and I am invited, fine. If there is one and I am not invited, that is fine too. It will not change my posting on the forum.
Do you not see the irony in that people that complain about "secret societies" and "privileged private clubs" are the ones yet advocating for them?
The more things change the more they stay the same.

No, I don't. This is private property. This owner, the previous owner, or any future owner is free to invite anybody they want to a private room.

If you don't like it, you can create your own space.
Weebles isn't wrong. What exactly IS the point of a private board? Isn't that what FaceBook is for? FaceBook fills that need.
I've seen what the old private board here contained, and it was certainly less than stellar content all things considered.
Yay!! Mel is back!

VF had a private room for a while and so did SG. As long as it doesn't take away from posting on the forum itself, it's fine.

It takes away at least some main board content 100% of the time, and I'm not personally a fan.
Just an example, on Vinny's DV there was a hidden forum only for the Mods. As you would imagine, its intent was to discuss moderation duties, how the rules were to applied, etc. You know what happened? 90% of the shit discussed in there really belonged on the main board, and had nothing to do with moderation. It actually kind of pissed me off, since Mods are supposed to be 'brand ambassadors' if you will, and contribute to the main board. NOT petty small talk shit on a Mod forum intended for Mod discussions.
This example works no differently anywhere else. You've instantly created two classes of posters. Now, I understand an owner can set a board up however they see fit, but an opinion was asked, and this is my opinion. If a topic cannot be discussed by regular posters on the main board, you'd probably not want to discuss that on a 'secret' forum either.
Due to the previous Admin's incompetence here, even I was able to gain access to the 'secret forum', on a board that I was permabanned from. Just bear that in mind also...
The secret forum here, was really dead. Super rare we posted in there. Didnt take away at all IMO.

Near the end, the only people who used it were Azhya and Zetsu. The idea for the private board wasn't the previous owner's.

A private board where the only requirement is "You are not Joe." would be awesome.
Ace has a point if you want a "private" forum it makes no sense since there are other platforms for that.

You have to think do you want yes Men/Women or have free open debates where we just let loose and be free?
there really is no privacy online.... if its posted, its available.... i get pretty disgusted by the sheer volume of idiots i have to scroll past but i have no real solution.... a 'private' board is toxic.... but so are complete idiots.... :sad:

No, he doesn't. He just doesn't want to be excluded if it goes ahead.
I don't know about how it worked on other forums. But, with the one we used to have here, you would not have known it existed unless you were a member. I agree, if a private sub takes away from posting, it's a problem. That was not the case here. Having said that, I stopped posting in the private sub. Once we got to know each other, there wasn't much point anymore.

That's what I said to them also... The minute I felt your hand in my hand in 'real life', it was a magnetizing event...
I think with DIscord, private subs are obsolete. If there is a private sub, and I am invited, I will not join.

No such real or tangible thing in all likelihood.
People got jabbed with an experimental lab virus which was so suggested accidentally leaked.
The diseases you're told to be on the lookout for are none other than the afflictions derived from getting jabbed.
You all took a cull shot. Some of them were more hot than others and some of them were mostly saline.
They designed the program that way.
