If you allow non-members they would see we are talking about their fake Newhouse Bear traps on Ebay LOL. In addition the non trapping collectors looking to make a buck may pass slanted information if they had access as a guest. I don't see a problem with closed forums- that allows those cleared in to be a little more frank about their opinions and methods. Jayme (ADC)has the entire Iowa Trap Talk limited to members if I remember - discussions are pretty raw sometimes too.
