My guess is that it will alleviate some pressure on the servers as likely there are lots of people signing up (and perhaps even spammers and scrapers). This follows the model of Snapzu (another reddit-like service, albeit not as close of a clone as Voat). The admins at Snapzu said that they would not have stayed up if not for the invite only model after the darkening drove lots of users there.

Maybe we're just the selected individuals to post original content. Everyone, you know what job you have now.
Or the botnet is hitting the registration page flooding the captcha and slowing everything?

WOW! So we're the chosen Goats and Voat is the promised pasture. Should we recite the creator's preayer?

We have a critical mass for thoughtful discussion, and this serves as a deterrent to those with adverse motivations but minimal effort-thresholds.

I've been eating too many hippies. Whoa, look at my hands, they can touch everything but themselves. Oh, wait.
