Promocodes and Giveaways forum should be private

[RttaM]

It should be private for non-registered users. The only reason I say this is because people are always complaining about Lurkers, and while it's not that much of a big deal it is to some people. I'm just throwing it out there, this is not my suggestion it's just something I heard.

I don't see how it would change anything. People would just make dummy accounts and never post. If you put a post count requirement they'd take those dummy accounts and make trash posts in other forums. The only real solution would be t have moderators grant access on an individual basis, and that would be a lot of work and likely cause a fair amount of drama.

Developers can distribute promo codes any way they see fit, whether that's reading them from the window of their car with a bullhorn, PM'ing people directly, or posting them for everyone to use. One developer recently posted 40 promo codes in the comments of a front page story.

What about subliminal messages?
