I have been sort of a lurker over the last year-- but also have used this
format for other bulletin boards. Last summer I purchased a MKIII from Dick
Neitzel in N. Wisconsin. It is the first to come off the line in KY. Have
been having a ball with it-- after getting some dual with Dick and also
about 4 hours with Dan (the god of Kolb's) Kurkjian. Dan was Homer's test
pilot and has over 600 hours in our little planes!! Enough.
Matt- Could you give us some guidelines and members need to get familiar
with replying to posts-- not starting a new topic. This will put all input
on a topic under a single topic-- MUCH easier to search.
1. When are you eliminating the email board?
2. If we want to stop the email board, should we discontinue our
"membership"?
3. How or are you going to create "history" from the email board?
4. Suggestion-- put up a reminder to "reply" till we all get used to this
format.
GREAT IMPROVEMENT-- No more 40 emails a day and much better search and
organizational ability!!

1. When are you eliminating the email board?

The email system isn't going to be going away. The new BBS is simply another interface to "view" the List content. Some people prefer email, some BBS forums. Now, you can "get your fix" either way... Smile

If you're satisfied simply logging into the BBS and checking and sending messages from there, then there's no requirement to stay subscribed to the email distributions. Its up to you.

3. How or are you going to create "history" from the email board?

All of the existing list Archive tools will remain in place and available with all of the latest posts both from the Email and the BBS.

4. Suggestion-- put up a reminder to "reply" till we all get used to this

Messages sent from Email or sent from the BBS are both cross posted to the other.

Oh, rats at 61, I too must agree. I went through the great times and
tribulations of the Commador Vic 20, the early days of Mackinslosh and the
answer to all answers; the IBM personal computer. I have also gone from
dial-up to cable and back to dial-up. I too have seen this format before and
have to agree with Charlie. This is a tougher route to follow. Sometimes,
simple is best and change for the sake of change isn't necessarily better.
I'm sure some will love this format but quite frankly, I'm in agreement
"please, please don't kill the old format.
Just another opinion and we all have bunches of them.
