(I tried to look through some of the older posts in here but the boinging was getting too much.)
I have been to other boards of various types of games and generally they will have a private forum for clan members only. Of course, they also have another private forum for Officers which would be like the council.
I think it's something that is needed here.
Just have the clan member PM for the password.

What is the benefit of having something like this? We already have a password protected board for the Council. In other games, usually clan-only forums have benefits for the clan only, things like gear, clan-specific knowledge or some other secrets not to be shared with others.
I'm not sure I'm seeing the benefits of a clan-only set of threads that doesn't already exist.

I suppose for those that are on the Council might not see the benefit of such a forum. I guess I was thinking that anyone in the clan was just as important as the next. But I guess it doesn't matter.

I don't think it's a matter of being on the Council or not, but rather that for general fun and games around the place, those who are not official members of the clan are just as important as clan members.
There are a few differences of course: only clan members can be voted Honored Warriors and part of the benefit of being voted so is access to that specific forum. And only clan members can be voted Member of the Year, be on the Council, or be appointed to "official positions."
So even though I'm not on the Council, I still don't find myself seeing the benefit of having this private forum. Could you talk a little more about perhaps, so I have a clearer picture?

As a member of the council and being on this forum for almost 4 years... I understand your point, but I dont think that this is entirely necessary

I've only been a member for a year, but I still made it to Council status. My view is this:
There is very little need or use for clan-exclusive boards for people to post on. I can't think of any active clans that make boards like that unless they are reserved for the clan leadership. It would seem that we are a closed society if we start filling our forum with exclusive boards. That's never been our clan spirit. W&W has been an inviting clan-to members, visitors, and even rivals. The day we start segregating our games and contests is the day we might as well make the entire forum closed to all non-members (Something I would be wholly against)

My only problem with this is that you would probably use this forum to throw awesome parties and not invite me. This is unnacceptable. NO FORUM FOR U!!!
