Matt,
There are a lot of WAVX iHub subscribers that do, for various reasons, no longer want to participate on an open WAVX board.
The question is not if the WAVX board is well run or not, the issue is that a fairly large group of WAVX followers want their own "private" room.
The question is whether iHub wants to provide a service for money in return. The question is whether iHub wants to accommodate their customers or not.
There is no reason why these WAVX followers have to justify "why" they want a private board. After all, iHub provides an infrastructure; The question is whether iHub is flexible enough to treat this request as a business decision rather that a philosophical one.
Question: Is iHub going to provide such a private board to subscribers or not?
