Ok... it's been a while since the INSIDERS forum was launched. Here's what I can report to those who don't have access. I am biased from the standpoint that I think the INSIDERS forum and ads were necessary to keep MJ interested in this for the long haul. I also think it was necessary to provide a non-Google indexed place for people to let their hair down and really get some honest advice without worry about exposing their words to everyone on the internet. And, I think the INSIDERS forum has been great so far. Here's what I can tell you :
The Good :
The Bad :
The Interesting :
If you are interested, give it a 90 day spin. Someone (I can't remember who as they didn't qualify for my long term selective memory) accused me a month or so of being a cheerleader for the forum. I am a cheerleader for success, and action. So... if that's who makes their way into the forum... than so be it. I think it is worth the investment for serious action takers, and people that want a peek under the table on some more in depth topics. Don't expect 200 threads in there... as the threads are less frequent, but tend to me more meaningful.
To anyone that will perceive this thread to be a

The Good :
- I think people are way more likely to lend a hand in there, because they are all stakeholders in each other
- I have seen some amazingly generous acts that have helped people's business
- Less assholes
- MJ definitely interacts there frequently (as he promised he would)
- Way less noise. Not a TON of posts, but mostly interesting
- Since INSIDERS posts are flagged, I tend to look at those flagged posts first
- Many of the people I would most want to interact with are there
- It's not indexed by Google and I think people are more free to speak openly there
The Bad :
- I think maybe there should be a minimum post threshhold before you can buy access to that (just my opinion) but that might help make the content there even better once people are more invested in others here
- I think we could be more consistent with things like the INSIDERS Conference Calls. I think INSIDERS should contribute more structure.
- The opportunity exists for INSIDERS to demonstrate more leadership and positive feedback both inside and outside of the INSIDERS forum. You are paying now to belong to this place. Don't sit on your a$$. Contribute positively to people's successes. Be a giver as much as you take.
- No a**hole filter. Anyone with a credit card can join. I wish we had the ability to vote people out on occasion "survivor style" but... it is what it is. However, the ratio of jackasses to cool people is much better.
The Interesting :
- I think in 2013 you will see more private content, including business launches that aren't on the open forum
- I think the weaker hands drop out of there pretty quickly. Action fakers might pay an initial round, but will not keep it up long term.
- A lot of the INSIDERS will also be at B&P
- I have not seen a single "Is this fastlane?" post in there. Most of the posters that bother to join the INSIDERS forum, by definition, are pretty hard core.
