Agreed
You don't need to be a registered user to read the posts here and if there ever came a day where my posts where moved to a forum that I couldn't access, I would be very disappointed to say the least
The dude that posted it on SD said flat out he read it here, so there's no secret there.
New stuff comes along quite regularly, when you see it, hit it, and when you read about it, assume it's going to be posted elsewhere and subsequently shut down.
But a forum within the forum is counter productive and will just encourage MORE posts on SD from people that gain the knowledge and you can't stop that
Cheers
