Insider or Outsider? To be or not to be,...?


Thoughts and feedback on the New Insider Lobby?

What new insider lobby? I signed up to give feedback and was asked questions about this all of which I said were a terrible idea but I didn't know it had been implemented. And I don't see it on the site anywhere?
Never mind I see it now and talk about an awful idea! If things continue this way that will be the end of Audiogon I think.

From the same people who brought you the porthole pictures.

Will these "enhancements" never end?

I FINALLY see it. right on the line if you click on "recent posts" header., at the end of ALL RECENT/UNANSWERED/RELATED TO YOU/INSIDERS LOBBYIf you STILL can't find it, here is a link: https://www.audiogon.com/learn/insider
Ahhhh yeah. TEN BUCKS A MONTH... Sure.. I signed up yesterday...  Oh, only $100 a year. better. 
Kind of like the VIP lounges at airports? Keep the riffraff out.What are the perks to make it actually worth the money?"less moderation'? Yikes. Sorry, I would want better control myself. Have threads YOU start controlled by YOU 100%. you can delete any post to it. wow. Might be worth it right there.And you get a badge.. how sweet! then EVERYONE knows you have forked out for it. Even on the regular forums.
Here you can show off you STATUS with a genuine BADGE next to your moniker. The add on free Audiogon Bluebook might be worth it for big buyers and sellers.
Audiogon is a commercial operation. I have no issue with their choosing how they operate and increase revenues from the site.

Trying it out first before passing judgement seems warranted, since it’s brand new.

I really like that it will be ad free.

It adds value by bundling in the Blue Book (though I have not been impressed with the BB).

I guess I need to experience the ’promotional offers’ (Offers and Discounts) before value can be determined.

Not sure how a private, limited-access forum with ’less-moderation’ will work?

I’m still mulling over signing up, or not.
