Topic: An invite-only legal forum (Read 1557 times)
I have a small invite only forum, not much discussion there yet, but anybody is welcome, feel free to PM me if you'd like an invite.
I don't see Legal here as noisy (except certain concern trolls).
Yes let's make so people have to pay for information. Invite forums and closed groups hurt bitcoin more than helping it. Especially in the legal nature.
I see your point.
However, this forum is to noisy (has too many posts per day), and as a result few people actually keep track of everything that's going on here. Limiting the audience able to post is a good way to keep only serious contributors.
We can post any relevant information that is generally useful back to this open forum.
Or perhaps, if we find a technological solution, we could have it open for public consumption, but require a Bitcoin fee for posting.
Limiting posting is different from using the bitcoin foundation forums, which are completely closed. I agree there is a lot of noise here for some issues, but I don't see the legal area being a part that is affected by that noise.

I am Chairman of the Foundation's Regulatory Affairs Committee
I didn't know that. Congrats!
Well thank you very much

There is an extremely high signal to noise ratio in the Bitcoin Foundation forum, where we are always discussing legal issues. I recommend posting there.
Of course, you must become a member first, which is .23 BTC. That self-limiting characteristic is likely why the ratio is so high
(Full disclosure, I am Chairman of the Foundation's Regulatory Affairs Committee, so I obviously want people to join)

That's actually a great idea, hadn't thought of that - thanks!

Or is there such a forum already, but nobody bothered telling me about it? 
This Legal forum is great, really - keep up all the good work.
Still, I am wondering whether there is demand for ... something a bit different.
I'm thinking of creating an invite-only private forum (Google Group) that has a high content to noise ratio.

- Do you think it's a good idea?
- Who should moderate such a forum (I'm not very active on the legal forum myself, I would mostly lurk in that forum)
- Who should we invite?
- What should it be called?
