Close blackhat world to registered users.

Im suggesting that all those cool methods that others share must be hidden somewhere and users that can get into that section must have some difficult stats like 100 post and clean rep with no negative iTraders. And yes i agree on that plug-in that deletes posts like \'How can I make 200 million in 30 seconds\' \'thanks\' \'nice\' \' welcome\'.

What would you do if a registered member leaks the information? How are you gonna catch him? I am not accusing anyone but you have to think of all possiblities...

Is there an estimate on how much money somebody lost, because of the method was sold on DP? Please guys, be real. We can all atleast agree that methods posted here, are on the verge of uselessness, because of the saturation or something similar. And there is no guarantee that even Jr. Vips aren't actually the ones who are selling methods on DP, so closing this forum to anyone except paying members would result in nothing (of course due to decreased number of members it would be easier to guess who sold something on DP, but no one like to bother with that stuff).

Lets close this forum from any new registrations. Period.
The one thing that drove me to the edge is the amount of $5 bribes for traffic...

IN THE MAKING MONEY FORUM!!!


PLEASE, WE'RE BECOMING ANOTHER DIGITALPOINT!
PLEASE, WE'RE BECOMING ANOTHER WARRIOR FORUM


And have it so that every time the amount of members fall below... 80,000 or so (due to auto-pruning inactive users/banned users), to automatically re-open registrations.

Done, simple and will prevent methods from saturation/becoming DP/dickrolls/leaks/etc.

Just look at the torrent world, this method works pretty well.
People who want to learn can come in, and party-poopers stay out (Most of the time).

So, in conclusion, let's close and prune blackhatworld. Those who really want to learn will find a way in.

And for the others, just imagine if Harvard suddenly opened their doors for every person to enter. It would no longer be as good as it currently is right?

P.S Close BlackHat World --> YES
P.S.S Cmon Diamond Dave, it is the right thing to do (Remember, once we lose our online reputation, it is impossible to regain)

Are you saying close registrations, or the ability to view forums without being registered?

I thought googlebot could handle username/passwords if you gave it to them. So closing off to registered members wouldnt be a probem. But i dont agree on closing registrations all together.

with due respect to all the members of BHW who are concerned about information getting leaked out of the site........

i am a complete newbie or a noob whatever, you name it. AND I DONT BELIEVE THAT SIMPLY because a guy a spares a few dollars out of his pocket, he is supposed to have a higher sense of integrity than those who have not shelled anything.... come on guys, BHW is gold mine... no money is enough to give back what our community is doing for us or can do for us.....
i accept that i am from a not so fortunate third world country .. but that is not the only reason for me to write this post.....
The community is what it is now , largely due to the generousity of its members....
i respect BHW... :You_Rock_

AND THANKS FOR SPARING YOUR TIME TO READ THE THOGHTS OF A HUMBLE NEWBIE...
