[Suggestion] Private Forum

[squanch]

@charlie
Would it be possible to create a private sub forum that is only accessible to registered forum members.
Maybe even put a minimum of ~20 posts a member has to make before he/she can view the private forum.

It would be great for threads about things like thyroid sources (or sources for other drugs like cyproheptadine), discussions about psychedelics, personal information or pictures that members don't want to share on a public forum etc...

just an idea

That would make charlie look like a drug dealer. You can still send your nudes to 4 people at the same time using private messages..

I don't personally think it's a terrible idea.

People are openly discussing sources for thyroid or cypro already. NDT products still remain a legal grey area and discussing things like the potential t3/t4 content of a NDT product which is available over the counter might not be the smartest idea if you want that product to be still available in the future...
Unfortunately not everyone shares our love for importing freeze-dried pig thyroids from tropical countries.

Same thing with all the psychedelic discussions. While it's all of course purely hypothetical
it might still be a better idea to move it to private forums.

Pointless IMO.

Uh yes sir we have a warrant? We heard you were talking about acid trips on the internet? You can either open or we can use the door ram.

Do we get cool Peat hoods and chant stuff? I'm only in if these are included.

 

[squanch]

Meh, whatever guys.

Here's an example:
There are still a handful of NDT products available over the counter here in europe, which are also actually shipped from within europe (UK mostly).
None of these companies can legally state the amount of actual active hormones contained in them and you can't discuss it on a public forum without risking the discontinuation of the product because of legal issues.

I have 4000 posts and never even was made aware of these, so there you go.

It's not really about the users posting it, but more about the guy running the forum if things like that are publicly visible. But that's Charlie's decision

I think it's a good idea, also to avoid spammers that hit the forum recently, linking some websites selling non-working t3 products.

forum (n.)
mid-15c., "place of assembly in ancient Rome," from Latin forum "marketplace, open space, public place," apparently akin to foris, foras "out of doors, outside," from PIE root *dhwer- "door, doorway" (see door). Sense of "assembly, place for public discussion" first recorded 1680s.
