Adding a new members only forum

[Traveler]

Currently on the Aces High Bulletin board  we have a number of forums, all open to the general public to read and post in.  This wish would be to add one additional forum that is open to the public to read, but only allow the paying public to post in.  It would be nice to discuss issues with actual dues paying members that have a skin in the game and an interest in seeing the game grow.

Would be nice to not have some guys that all they do is come on and bash all the new changes even though they no longer play or the guys who left because of them and complain all the time.

This would add inconvenience with no real benefit.

You don't have to read every post.

One thing it would do is ensure you that every post is coming from a paying customer.  What's the inconvenience with that?

Not going to happen, simply because of the PITA of trying to mate the bbs and the AH system which have nothing to do with each other.

Consider the same discussion in two different forums vs in one forum.

Keep in mind there are former players, such as myself, who do not bash the game and do plan on coming back who use the forums to keep our toe in the water so to speak.

How was stating that I understood your reason for not doing this wish a violation of rule #4.  I said I understood that you couldn't do it.  The technology doesn't exist.

I think you mistook me for an HTC staff member.  I am not and have nothing to do with moderation.  I was replying to your opening post.

Please reread my post.

And nothing for you would change, you would have access to everything that you currently have access to, just not the members only forum.

What purpose would that serve except to make you feel special?

It is well known many have played on and off for almost 20 years now. Why is their opinion regarding the game suddenly less valid than yours? Just because you're currently paying?

WHY do you all keep talking on this-HiTech said no, No means no.
