Ideas for The Auction

Although the Auction board has always been a board in which to trade bootleg videos, audios, etc., and it has always been a private board for Music Box members only, I am beginning to think that opening it up, perhaps not to the public, but rather to registered members, would draw in more members and increase the productivity.

Here are the proposals::

1)Open The Auction to the public, so even non-members can view it, as with most other boards on this forum.
*Not my favorite idea, since this won't attract members; simply people looking to steal links*
2)Open The Auction to all members, regardless of Music Box membership.
*Again, this may attract members simply to trade*
3)Open The Auction to all members with 5 posts or more.
*This ensures membership on the forum, as the posts must be outside of The Auction. However, they can NOT be SPAM posts*
4)Keep The Auction as is, requiring Music Box membership.
*Change nothing*

Of course, being the generous Admin that I am, I am leaving this option open-ended to the members' disgretion.
Just give your opinion!

Thanks a lot,
