Sooo some background.


I would love to see a section on the forums where I could post a thread but not have it show up to people but have a link to share it with friends.


This may seem useless but especially for people like me who spend a great deal of time trying to perfect the look of my threads. I usually end up screen-shotting the preview and sending it to people. For some of my sell threads this can take 3 or 4 screenshots and its quite a hassle.
This helps make sure the layout looks good and there's not small typos like now and know which can easily missed when looking at your own work but someone else would catch it immediately.


So basically it would be a place where you could post your thread. But wouldn't show up in the index. And the only way it could be reached was through a link.


You could have a short duration on the threads like 48 hours plenty of time to get feedback or perfect the look. Without taking up a ton of space.


Mods could possibly have the ability to view all the threads in the section to ensure its not being used to traffic small children knowing that in a matter of days the evidence would be gone.

I don't really see a point to having something like this. It's what the Preview Post button is for -- you don't have to submit your thread until you've gone over it as much as you need to.

Don't most people anymore have their own forums set up somewhere as a sandbox for themselves? Plenty of free forums you can create out there.
