Kiwi Farms

So I'm not really an off-topic person. I don't have much I care to talk about other than server stuff and lolcow stuff. As a result, I'm more out-of-touch with this board than any board.

I'm curious if anyone has any feedback regarding Off-Topic.

As it stands, the requirements for Off-Topic are:
20 likes
10 posts
3 day old account

Off-Topic is restricted to Lolcows, Predatory users, and Disruptive autists.

I'm curious if:
a) opening the board to new users sooner would be a good idea.
b) opening it to guests would be a good idea.

I'm also contemplating adding social groups back to the forum. I have found a different mod that may accomplish it better.
