I like this as a 'nice-to-have'. It could either be like a multi-PM or a normal tribe post that is only visible to the chief/mods of that tribe (text only).
I'm not sure how we do that though, like do we have a cap limit on the size the tribe should be before others can see the place? Will it be selective? I just don't like reddits modtalk. It seemed too selective, and eventually clouded over a lot of transparency, I mean I've heard so many times of the "leaks" from mod talk these places where mods are actively railing against there userbase. So I'm just wondering how it might be done effectively?
Part of why I left was because of all the shadowy stuff going on in the background, but a "chief section" would only be for the respective tribe's chief and mods. What we should avoid are private invitation-only tribes, because that's what modtalk and defaultmods are. That's what fostered all that elitism over at Reddit. Who knows what else is hidden in all the private subreddits...
Yeah I agree, we've got to find a balance in between, letting everyone in and only letting small communities in. Maybe make it so that instead of being an invite tribe it works by what your tribe's level is at.

I'm a mod on reddit, we have multi-PMs and it's not enough.
Part of the reasons for the "give us better tools" movement.
Full shadow tribe would be best.

We're talking about what reddit calls the modmail.
