Snorkel has proposed making Boyah public, but he wants us to determine the degree of publicity we want from the bare minimum like reenabling Google indexing to the extreme option of advertising on nsider2.
First vote.
I would be upset if Offline Discussion were public or google indexed.

as would I
in the event we choose to "go google" the boards with highest concentration of personal info will remain private and noindexed
guest boards are lame
but think of all the bot posts

so all of the boards worth reading?
Just create a second "lobby" populate it a little bit and new users will only have access to that board, and put all the now active users in a secondary user group that has access to all current boards as they are now. And then we never tell the new members that there are any other boards.
nsider2 + new member "lobby" = ban for anyone you think is ridiculously unable to allow membership to
We're already public. We're just not whores. But I have nothing to hide, so I say yeah. We need some fresh new faces, like a line of coke or something to liven things up.
i personally think that you shouldnt have to register to view the board
there's been a few times that i've linked friends of mine to something on boyah and they were like fuck that i dont want to register for something
my personal preference would be to have the board open to instant registrations, and a static site on boyah.net in a blog format or something where we post "articles" about things we're interested in (for purposes of search engine rank optimization)

fuck sorry i accidentally hit "modify" instead of REPLY and typed my post in your post
i was goijg to say
well the problem with this idea has always been that no one would actually take the time to make/write anything, but that discussion can happen in another thread
I'd like for the IRL board to be kept private, as well as maybe also the lobby because we divulge quiet a bit of personal information.
But I'm more than okay with boyah being public.
boyah should price its ipo at $45. the nasdaq will eat it u p

Public + Indexing with certain boards off limit to bots (or even guests).
This would allow things like the lobby to be indexed while keeping Offline Discussion off Google's index.
