[arg_discuss] Admission criteria for private sub-list

[Christy Dena]

Oh I get ya. I was thinking of a small elite list in some dark dungeon, not
a massive list that just controls access to keep players out (for their own
good -- no spoilers!). 

The only problem you may have then is 'what is an ARG?' There may be some
people who have created a wonderful pervasive game of some kind but not
necessarily an ARG. They of course would still have skills to share. But you
could deal with that on a case by case basis...

Also, this list will still be populated with designers, so there is no
reason why people can't put out a call for assistance on this list too (to
be contacted privately at the designers own will).

Over to the list...

Well, then the well-known developers will be the only ones who get
"pinged" and will have to handle all those pings themselves, instead of
having an established process with volunteers willing to administer it.

I'd like to chat with a group, not just two or three people. Also, I'd
like it to be something I can turn on and off at will. When I get really
busy I can set a mailing list to "no mail" but I can't ask random people
I've never met not to ping me.
