What do you guys think about closing registration on SR for a while? With all the new publicity going on and scams everywhere I think it might not be a bad idea.
-
I think that is against DPR's ethos!
He decided to do the interview and is aware of the publicity so this will not happen.
this idea is often suggested and generally by people who are not long registered for some strange reason...
Anyway I think it would take something major for that to happen.

Things are getting major in my opinion... Not that DPR cares what teenagers do, but this could bring silkroad to a bad place.

+1 to you mazz for your honest reply. I see where you are coming from. I never gave to much thought to the fact that I have not been here too long but that is kind of funny.
I guess I was just nervous that somehow this awesome place I have found would be shut down.
Point well taken!

I know man, no worries.
Wish the system was idiot proof.
That link is mad! What the fuck are these people thinking!

OUCH!
My first -1 Karma :( . I guess it was bound to happen.

** i think this would be better suited in the Silk Road disscusions category **
but anywho..
I'm torn.. poor decisions from users bring a bad perception of SR..
but i was trying to get a good homie to join.. oh well..
we shall see i suppose..

everyone wants registration closed after they found the road. It's like they don't want anybody else to have access to the resources they found. Just remember, DPR made this site for you and everyone else too. Why would he leave it open for several years till you made an account, then close it so nobody else gets a share of the love? Besides, he makes commission on sales so it'd be in his best interest to have more buyers.
In what way do you think more people knowing about it is going to increase the chances it'll get shut down? There's been a number of huge publications about this place and I'm sure LE knew about it previous to those. If they had the ability to actually do something about it, they would have already. Instead they're just trying to restrict access to btc.

You got something against new customers?

I guess I was just a bit ignorant about the whole deal. I have signed up to torrent sites in the past and they have shut down registration and made it invite only or opened registration every once in a while.. But then again I have tried to get into some sites that have closed registration and it sucked!
I made this post in the rumor mill because I saw some posts about doing it and just to see what the general consensus was.
I have thought about deleting this post because as soon as I posted it I started receiving negative karma. I went from 0 to -6 real fast. But I decided to leave it up and take my beating like a man.
All I can say now is point taken!

one thing I would like to do is to somehow be able to hide my account if I decide to give SR a rest for a while and be able pick up where I left off from when ready to. This is my second time on the site, I lost my stats the last time as I deleted my acc. just incase there were probs while I was away. I doubt it could be done though.
