Can I make a request...?
Can we have a members only area?
The web is an international thing...
The board can be accessed by people all over the world. We have no control over what is said. I have seen Club members get very irrate and "attack" new board members personally which provokes a counter attack from the new board member.
Members of the club take offence to comments made by outsiders and treat this board as something to protect.
It isn't...It is freely accessible to be used by anyone.
If we want to "protect" the outside world from us...we should be able to have access to each other via a members only area.
I just read back my own post! That is really sad, to re-read a post on a freely available board to check for fear of offending someone because I know some people!
I thought the good thing about the internet was that it is anonomous...You can be who you want to be.
Surely that is the problem here.
We have too many issues going on, in conflict with one another.
There is nothing wrong with posting what you want as long as paid up members can retreat to somewhere that is private to discuss what is being said on the board. It just creates an area where members can be themselves.
