Users who have expressed support for this idea, their ranks, and their merit count

Influential members who supported with +Merit (no post support)

LoyceV - Legendary (Merit: 13245)
vapourminer - Legendary (Merit: 2714)
ETFBitcoin - Legendary (Merit: 5798)
JayJuanGee - Legendary (Merit: 7833)

I am not sure if you are forcing my hand, but many folks already likely realize that I have difficulties committing to certain kinds of things, and from my perspective sending merits does not necessarily indicate support (nor understanding of the ideas being discussed), even though for me, I send merits for posts that either seem to raise interesting points or maybe I believe that a certain amount of work/effort went into constructing a post (but who knows with ChatBots these days?), but I don't necessarily agree with or support the posts that I merit, merely because I merited them.

For the record: the fact that I Merited a post doesn't (necessarily) mean I agree or support the post. It means I think the post is worth reading.
In this case: I wouldn't be against a privacy board, and considering how many topics you've listed, I'd probably spend some time reading there.

Your support would be quite influential I believe.

I hope not Tongue

If I can't convince people with facts, I don't want to do it with my opinion.

Awesome post. Sorry if it came across as forcing your hand Wink

I made the title more appropriate after LoyceV mentioned it:

Influential members who possibly support the proposal (OP/multiple post +Merit though no post of support)

One thing is for sure, it worked! All that's missing is ETFBitcoin saying something... Roll Eyes

Thank you for quoting me, but among all these people, I am the least likely to have influence. Lips sealed

But I got the idea. The idea you want to convey is that several users, in some way known, would appreciate this type of board.

You are all very modest. Individual support grows the collective support. The more, the merrier! I would not say it means nothing and from an outside perspective. I'd even say some of you may be under estimating yourselves, as "nothing" in a collective effort is a definite under estimation and arguably no one is little! In my opinion anyway

I'll be sending the thread to theymos soon as it seems input has reduced significantly and there does not seem to be new feedback. Let's hope for the best!

Not that this is too important, but:
JayJuanGee loved your post and analysis. thank you for the input! To add to the OP, your post is so long and I am not sure what to snip or whether or not to count anything as personal support. So I'll just leave it be for the time being but included a link to input.
LoyceV I suppose not being against it is not necessarily supporting it either, so I just left that quote in the section it was.

Thanks for the posts guys.

EDIT
I remembered a topic I created some time ago, which might fit into this category:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5392035.0

If you find it appropriate, it's one more for the list. (I pass the ad.)

Added to OP, thank you!
