Exclusivity has been one of the primary driving factors in most major social web companies... and then at some point they just open the floodgates. I think, barring the extreme freedom of speech side like the chans, a good analysis and use of exclusivity would be a great way to do things. What gives you the "ticket in" is another topic that would take a lot of thinking and would depend on the site and it's goals.
- st1ck 6y ago> What gives you the "ticket in" is another topic That's the primary factor which would determine the outcome. As a community, you probably want to attract currently undervalued people and help them to uncover their potential. If it's just invite-only community, I expect it to stagnate and never reinvent itself for the better. There are a few good public forums (like lobste.rs) which require invitation to comment, and I inevitably end up ignoring them after I want to contribute to the conversation and realize it's not possible.
