Given the effectiveness of message boards . . .

Should the AdSense team open a private, members only, BBS?

[Webwork]

I've read that in certain settings a private message board - restricted to "qualified" members only - can be very effective in quickly addressing issues, getting the word out, allowing all levels of involvement (management, tech, helpdesk, etc.) in any issue reducing chain-of-command lag time, cutting down on redundant email processing, reducing phone time, etc.

It could be a rules driven system: "Here's the thread titles. Here's what we will or won't address. Here's a premod thread for questions you're not certain fit a given thread. Here's the 'do and die' rules.

Although I'm not yet (maybe someday) an AdSense publisher it seems to me that AdSense would be perfectly suited to such a members only BBS approach.

Why or why not?

What say ye AdSense Advisor? What's the chance of Google hosting - at Google, not here - a private members only forum?

How do we know they don't have one? :-)

Ya, best suggested by sending to your adsense account rep or adsense publisher feedback...
