Then hopefully somebody can come and sticky it.

I think though a longer term solution would be to give us permanent storage on the forum. A repository for all intelligence gathered, with meta tag editable by users to allow easy harvesting of relevant infos. Because nice links have a habit of disappearing, either naturally over time or because LEO turned into even more of a little bitch. A couple of GB should do it. Also, the intell should be vetted. You could have members with 100 posts able to give * to ***** on items, and kmfkewm as a intelligence moderator/harmonizer (hey buddy, I got you a job and in this economy! :D) xD
Repository categories could be like:
- Computer Security
- Smuggling
- Chemistry
- Finance
- How To
- Legal
etc

+1 to all of this, especially the need for an intelligence subforum.
There's a ton of great information that's been posted on these forums, but it's all spread out in different topics and different subforums. And I know there's even more that hasn't been posted yet. It would be great (necessary, in my opinion) to have one place to consolidate all of it.

What? No. Intelligence that keeps members out of jail should be available to everyone.
But yes, a comprehensive forum with sticky's to the FAQ about security and such would be very nice.

Ah, I don't mean it should be restricted as in who is reading the material. Not at all.
I mean you want to vet the material to ensure that LEO doesn't either slip in some nasty surprise into a file, or upload data which if believed could lead to serious trouble. e.g. some bullshit about putting a 'diplomatic mail number' on a package such that it goes through customs without being analyzed, that kind of thing.

Ok that makes sense. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Why not use the Silk Road wiki for a repository? http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
Easier to navigate and format articles in a hierarchical manner than the forums, no derailing thread banter to distract from the subject at hand and it's in a handy portable, shareable and open format.
A complete and workable, up to date copy could be tarbelled and available for download with the click of a button, by anyone, anywhere, anytime.
Everybody keeps talking about decentralization of data. What could be more decentralized than having the complete contents of a community sourced wiki available in an open and easy to obtain, easy to read, easy to host format.

The trouble with that is that people who don't know anything about the topic at hand can contribute their shitty advice. (There are many things that people who do know what they're talking about can disagree on, but I've been seeing lots of shitty advice here recently like using bitcoin proxies or not using PGP that nobody should be doing.) I think kmf is a good choice for any intelligence forum in the future as he knows what he's doing imo.

Sticky it wiki it or search [intel] ;) whatever works.
I never read past the OP if I think the info is good, so dickheads below it can write what they like as far as I am concerned.
