I would like it private but as I stated in my first post in this thread, how do you cut off someone? Do you use big-boards.com standard or define your own? I don't like posting stuff in public that I wouldn't mind if it was a private forum with people who have the same issues/goals/problems/whatever as me.
Sorry to keep this up but there seems to be a lot of support for it.
For Example:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=134951 That thread is from someone who obviously doesn't own a big board. In my opinion the whole point of this forum is for admins who run decent sized forums to share ideas on a same level basis? We don't want to see questions about how to submit a site to a search engine, which is usually something that a big board admin has figured out since... well... they have a big forum. We want to share ideas, have a place to ask about dealing with problems that arise as you get bigger.
