the point of an invite only chat club is that only specific sections of members wanting to interact with each other where they donot resort to bashing/disagreeing/flaming of any sort....since this is the kind of posts most members detest on the general forums,most of them seek haven in the chat clubs.how safe do we feel really,if members who are not invited,stalk our posts and report them time and again?i used to write a fan-fic for members of my chat club only.imagine my horror when my exact language,style and ideas were plagiarized by another member and incorporated into a new fan-fic ! i request permission for restricting access to invite only fan clubs for members other than ones belonging to the chat club,since the whole point of an invite only chat club is diluted since non- members freely access the contents and once a while take out their grudge on the members in the main forum by quoting posts from the chat club they should ideally not access.since the moderators/viewbies are allowed this privilege in the restricted section,why shouldnt the members be allowed as well?

agree with you dudu....and one way or the other,encouraging non-members to check out chat clubs at their leisure is like promoting voyeurism.many members are friends/cousins with each other and share details of their personal lives as well.we dont want non members accessing them do we?sure we have email ids or alternative groups outside india-forums,but then,what is the point of india forums at all?isnt it fair that we get to know each other on some common forum and once we become friends,we are allowed to form our own chat clubs and chat there in peace?

exactly what i want to avoid.what the others do is none of our business.we dont want any interference from them as well.reporting forum posts is one thing.disagreements turn into full fledged arguments occasionally.but its another thing when it is done on the chat clubs.it simply means we are being stalked.

and since we are unable to do anything about that situation,despite huge headers asking them to keep out,we think this is a simpler way out.the worst part is,reporting isnt the only thing they are doing.some of them actively participate in the discussions on the CCs to rile the members up,and when things get heated up,report the posts.its like since they are not able to pick fights on the forums,they have to resort to this policy.

I am ALL for this, it will solve a LOT of problems on I-F actually, PRIMARY one being STALKING of CCs.

agreed.
 
non-members of a chat club should be restricted access in the CC, and should not be allowed to report. there is a reason its invite only, because the people who agree with you are in, those who don't are out...and this leads to no arguements..
