Would you prefer our online community to be an open or closed forum?

Hello online community users,  

We would like to know if you would prefer our online community to be an open or closed forum. 

The online community is currently an open forum. This means people without an online community account can: 

  • browse threads and comments published by members; 
  • search the online community.  

A closed community would not be open to the public and only members would be able to read and search threads.  

*Please log into the online community to vote*

  • Maybe have a "members only" area for general chat.

    The main thing is I'm fed up of being suspicious of every new "member" who posts here wondering if they are human or not. Whether they have a name or generic NAS number. If it's about priorities, I think this is more important - to ensure only real humans are using this place. I don't know whether a closed forum would help this or not.

    Absolutely, yes. I'm starting to think  quite a lot of them may not be, which is concerning.
