I voted no. I like the minimum post requirement for the Asylum. If the only reason people are signing up for Battleforums is to start trouble in the Asylum, they're not exactly the kinds of people we need here.
Too many "noobies" find themselves in the Asylum and start getting flamed. This results in a lot of people getting tired of BF and leaving. I think we should keep how freaking rude and inhuman our members can be from affecting the new guys for as long as possible...the Asylum is shameful and embarassing, and it's no place for new people.
In addition to this though, the forum description that IS visible to new members should be very clear as to what the Asylum is, so it doesn't become some intriguing "hey I wonder what's in there, I can't wait for 150 posts so I can see what's in that special forum." Make it clear that it's a no-holds-barred pit of obscenity and anger...that the only reason it's not available to everyone is so that you'll have some time to get to know the people around you before they suddenly start flaming the everloving **** out of you.
