angelsangel, registration at whedonesque was open for labor day. By now, it's shut down again. I suggest trying again on another holiday.

I'm a member of Whedonesque.com and trust me, SlayAlive.com is SO much better! Don't get me wrong, Whedonesque.com is a great site for the latest scoop on anything Jossverse and whatnot. But here, we get to interact and socialize more with other members. (My fellow Whedonesque-ers, I hope I am not offending any of you. And I am deeply sorry if I am.)

Joe, I think it's because they have nearly 8,000 members and if they had open registration, it would become even more difficult to manage as people are always trying to register there.
By limiting it to holidays, they ensure that only the people who are very interested in becoming members have the know-how for when to attempt registration. Plus, this ensures that the moderators there know when the newest group of members will arrive. They can be on the look-out for the noobies and ensure that they're adjusting to the rules of their site. As well as more easily weed out trolls and people only interested in spamming.

Their efforts to weed out the trolls have failed catastrophically.

I've been a member there for about roughtly a year now, I can't really remember when I signed up but I had no idea they did this. I just decided one day I may aswel become a member and I clicked the appropriate link to do so.
I'm quite surprised about this, I guess I just got lucky.

Member or not, you have access to the same things. Only you are unable to post comments there. You're not missing out on much by not having an account.

Ok, that's good. I had the idea i was like an elit community of Whedon fans, but is there really any screening for who gets in or not? Apart from small windows for regstration.
Why is it considered such a good site? How do they get info before everyone else?

I am fairly certain they are the largest group out there on the web. One thing they have is that Joss himself posts there a few times a year. But with that aside it is just a blog, and they get their info fast because people scour the internet for links to post up. Any site, that had dedicated followings like that could easily do what they do. I am not a fan of their set up, since most old topics get pushed off the main page into the archives and pretty much die. They do not screen anyone, but only open registration on holidays in order to monitor things closely. They probably had a hard time with spammers, I assume.
I prefer forums, where we have topics with 18 pages of comments.
