Should the forum be available for everyone to read? - Page 2 - Alphaville Forum

I prefer it if people have to register.

Hmmmm, so which sections should be for everyone and which for members only ? Kinda hard to decide, isn´t it ?

I'm not sure what to vote for now. @.@

I don't know if "exclusivity" is a valid argument, but I also prefer that people have to register.

Let them register, so that they are part of our big family...

I voted no.
There were lots of madness here in last 7 years, so let them all at least register before they can read it. [smile2]

let people read without to register... but to post they should be logged in otherwise we all end up named GUEST ;)

I voted no, but at the same time I think a split forum could work. It would be a good idea to open the 6 forums about "Alphaville"...."News and rumours", "Alphaville discussion" etc for everyone to read. I don't think non-members should have access to our "General Discussion" etc.

So, you are thinking open these for guests ?

News & Rumours
Chat Transcripts with Alphaville
Alphaville Discussion
Music
Crazyshow Discussion
Lyrics
Cover Versions & We Heard the Call

The rest members-only ?
