Hi,
In response to the Adriana and Robbie postings relative to the issue of loss of members and the possible demise of this NG, I
sent the following to Mr. Eddy a few minutes ago. Now, I have to go :-)
~Neo~
Good Morning Mr. Eddy,
I recently began to participate in the subject newsgroup. During this short period of time, I have been extremely impressed by
the pool of talent that resides in the Group. Additionally, the members exceed the limitations of what would normally be expected,
in assisting others with any problems or answering any questions. This applies not only to OE stationery but the whole gamut of
technical questions relative to use of computers and Microsoft operating systems platforms.
It is my understanding that many members are "drifting away" or not participating in the Group due to the limitations on the
size of postings; and, the requirement that they be "broken apart" when submitted and "recombined and decoded" for reading. I
believe the changes were made approximately nine months ago. Additionally, I understand that the reason for this is that viruses
were being introduced into some News Groups via attachments, but the OE Stationery Newsgroup seldom uses attachments. I doubt this
savvy Group would open an attachment, in any event, being aware of the current security problems.
I am writing to briefly describe the situation, as seen by one new member of the Group. I even refer to myself as "Neophyte;"
which I am. :-) Also, I would respectfully request that you, and your colleagues, institute whatever action is necessary to
reestablish the operating parameters that existed for the News Group prior to the changes. Perhaps, you could check some of the
postings in the Group to see some of the concerns.
I sincerely appreciate your consideration in this matter and thank you in advance for any assistance that you and your
associates may provide to resolve this problem. Again, thank you and have a good week!
