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

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.

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.

This looks like a good idea to me $100 USD is a trivial, tiny, paltry, sum and what it will do in effect, result and consequence is substantially limit and reduce the children who post here there seem to be quite a few that are probably at the third grade level as revealed in they're thinking such as in the other thread about how it is a moral failing to earn a profit from items bought from this site! There are also those fundamentalist proselytizers who jump into every cable thread and yell SNAKE OIL and then say they do it to protect others from a fraud that they can not prove! I would say that if the $100 fee does not work that the site explore, consider, and evalulate an even higher fee so that those who contribute here are serious rather than winkly dinklers.
