Closing Off BHW From The World

[jakeumms]

Here what I think most of us agree in but with my little add on.
Close of registration like demonoid and make it invite only but if you invite someone stupid you both get banned. Also make so people can only make invitations during open invitation booths. Also make parts of the forums that guests can, and other parts that are for only registered people.

I tottaly agree that BHW is should be invite only for newbies from now and it should be free as it is now.

Hmmm, how about having a closed area for only a buck a month, then "value" posts. Maybe do it based on # of thanks received. If the post is well thanked/rated then move it to the closed area. Noobs would still 1) have a shot to see some powerful stuff before it gets ghosted. 2) be motivated to return frequently so they don't miss anything and/or 3) see the value to upgrade to get to the closed area. Bonus - the site gets monitized a bit. You could even thin the herd a bit more with some sort of qualifying test. What's CPA, AC, CL or whatever just to get the people with desire and a few smarts.

Every ones up for a Invite only so i'll just wait and see if the Beloved Admins announce the Invite only in effect soon. :bebored:

CLOSE IT OFF NOW. That's what your GUT FEELING IS TELLING YOU.

Don't let the site and ALL THE HARD WORK you put into B.H.W get ruined.

I'll pay a fee to stay. Modify the board to make it better, the good talent thats
here will stay.

I see this board COMMENTED ON TOO MANY TIMES IN OTHER INFERIOR FORUMS
such a DdigitalpointT and WwarriorForumM. It draws TOO MANY SITE LEACHING
NOOBS here who spread the word that the GOODS are to be had at B.H.W.

CLOSE B.H.W. Off now. Implement the fee and in the end we will all be the better
for it.

I appreciate being welcomed into this forum however I don't believe the ideas we share here should be made public. The things talked about here should really be done in private for two reasons. First so the tactics remain effective and second so the ideas don't become saturated.

 

[blackdan]

I vote for "Please close off BHW to visitors... I don't mind paying a small fee."

The reason is, I don't want more competitors, and I'm sure everyone doesn't want too.

Newbies will say let this forum be free cause they don't care about competition,
While other people will want this forum to have lesser members.

there was way less bh practicing 1 year ago, its getting on fast, and very soon, strategies that we alredy learned and know will be saturated.

I am ready to pay $20+/month,

 

[KingSize]

I also vote for "Please close off BHW to visitors"
About the fee, i thin i would pay it... Not that i would welcome it, but would pay ...

 

[sevomthgir]

my thoughts (and echoing others)...

- close the door and you close the door to good new people and resources

- the world is dynamic ... sure there are a lot of new people signing up but a lot of people move on (eg get a 'real job', or strike it rich and see no need for bhw, or tried and then give up, or get married and have a baby, inherit wealth from relative and do away with bh and bhw,
or decide to be monk or priest and give up bhw.... you get my point)

- encourage people to donate to maintain forum. i know i intend to donate soon.

- somehow get the forum to be self-manage as far as possible. ie taking less admin time for the owner. i don't know .. maybe programmatically (software) and automation

- there are abundance of opportunity out there. and the number of opportunities on the net are growing and growing faster than we can take advantage off. we ( white and blackhatters) cannot keep up.
(take abundance and abundance remains - upashad (?) whatever said something to the effect).

- somehow encourage people to contribute more and give back. i know i'd like to contribute more. (but like many in here not sure how. there should be a sticky post on
how even newbies can contribute to this great community)

- somehow curb the activity negative people and negative activity. problem solved.


ok. so i like the word 'somehow'. but don't ask me how!
phew... enough thinking for one day.

As somebody that has just joined recently from a member referral I would have no problem paying a monthly fee. The knowledge I have gained in a short space of time is truly amazing and I look forward to being able to give back to the community. I would hate to see the quality diminish by it becoming too popular, so a small fee would keep the complete leechers out and encopurage a more tighter smaller community. I think anyone, even starting out, can afford $10 per month.

[q3ick]

Yes: Please close off BHW to visitors I don't mind paying a small fee.

9.00 fee seems decent...19.00 is somewhat pushing it.

 

[cristianraiber]

I've been a member of this forum for about a month I think ... and the things I learned in here and the software I found were truly and simply amazing. I for one am voting for the closing of the forum. Invite only or $9 / month, I don't really care as long as I can stay here and read & participate.

Just my 2c.

 

[biginch]

What about leaving it open to the public, but how about implementing another forum off of BHW that is a paid service that only discusses the best methods. Or different sections to paid members. But then again how is that you can keep paid members from submitting these methods to free sources to help build their reputation.

It is a tough situation.

 

[vivalafeva]

ha thats what BHU and DIM are for

 

[justone]

A general fee would kill the forum longterm and definitly weaken the quality of it.

Many good people would go, stupid fortunehunters with no knowhow would join/stay.
I'd really dislike it, I'm really a guy that likes private groups with high quality but to be part of such a group you need knowhow and not money.

 

[luckykittypurrpurr]

i definitely think make the forum private!! i am still kinda a noob here but i have seen so many forum posts stolen. i offer help to many people and i have people contacting me with 1 post for help, hell i dunno if they are trustworthy or not. and now its made me paranoid.

just think the more people having accesss, even without access to jr vip the more people getting these secrets out and trying to over exploit them and ruining it for everyone. hell everyone knows how much different cl is now and its from black hatters over exploiting it.

i dunno about the monthy fee though, cuz it would deter a lot of people with the "know how" like someone else said. but i think that more sections should be closed off and people should have to donate or earn with posts and helping. and also close off pms unless someone has a certain amount of posts. i get so many people begging for help, and like a dumbass i help and they dont even try to learn on their own. then they harrass me asking the same things over and over again and wont bother (though i beg) to do any research on it on their own.

sorry vented a bit there.... anyway ya i think it should be made more private. maybe not to the extent youre talking about but with a happy medium. i love this community but i cant stand the moochers who dont wanna work at anything themselves and wanna steal from this forum and users on this forum

=^..^=

 

[husker999]

If becoming a paid forum but can maintain the standard, then i will go for the paid private forum provided its few dollars per mth.

Most of the time, when a forum become private and members need to pay a monthly subscription, a lot of people will leave. The amount of sharing will not be as good or great compared to the previous free forum.

 

[jakeumms]

Okay so I have read most of the comments and here is my final conclusion.

1. Close of the forum for sure, it will turn into DP, ideas are being stolen everyday, it is just something that needs to be done.

2. Definitely make it invite only (open only during 15 days out of every 6 months). Also in order to join, you need to pay $10 up front, and then a recurring $25 every year.

*$9 a month is just not something I would be willing to pay for at this moment, and it would surely push away a lot of people who end up contributing (I for one already have a few things I am definitely going to share once I have time, and I am not even that old of a member).

Also I know lots of people don't want to pay a fee, but the one I offered was very reasonable and would both push away newbies, and also make it private.

ALSO PLEASE JUST REPLAY TO MY THREAD IF YOU AGREE WITH THIS.

 

[pandabe]

yeah I agreed if BHW closed and that new member should join through invite or pay small fee,because lots of good methods here were sold by pricks on DP,and therefore I think BHW should restricted it's new member.I agree to pay fee per month but I certainly hope it's not $9 or $19.I am just a noob in IM,and fact is that amount of money pretty big for me,maybe not for others,but hey I am still in learning process here

 

[senecapharm]

I say keep it open. I found this forum recently and it has really opened up my eyes to the real world of internet marketing... A year ago I didn't know d*ck about the internet, now I at least know enough to ask good questions... maybe someday I'll know enough to make some good money!

Thanks BHW for a real education.

BHW should be free and open, just like the Bible!
