Maiden speech from an old man

[dunbarx at aol.com]

Hello, Hermann.


Welcome to the dark side.


But what do you suggest? Merging? Discarding one in favor of the other, to provide only a single venue for LC discussion?


There was a poll taken a year or two ago about which "forum" was the most favorite among the helpers. You have sort of voted for the runRev forum. I prefer that as well. But many prefer the use-list here. I personally think two venues is distracting, but do not want in any way to diminish access and interplay among us.

This is my first "speech" here, it's more a (slightly provocative) plea.

I'm now 18 months with LC, at about one year participating LC's forum. In the 
last weeks I sometimes looked in here. There are very interesting and high level 
threads in this club of "since-the-early-days-of-MC-users-corner". 

Fine, it's an open club but still very familiar. One knows each other and knows 
all posts of this one or the other user of the last 10-20 years or the full 
correspondence of a thread crossing several years. Some mystic atmosphere by 
this, not to say 'esoteric'. 

I think, it is a pity that this goes so much its own way.

All we 'new' users, from 10-99, want to learn from you and, don't underestimate 
this, give you the chance to learn from some (randomly seldom) brilliant posts 
of us -:).

Appreciated very much, some of you participate also in the forum, some cite 
threads from here, some even try to connect threads or single posts from here to 
the forum (especially Bernd, Craig, Richmond and Richard, thanks for that).

Let's find a way to come closer in the community, to come together, right now. 
Why not make an "Insider's corner" in the forum?

Hermann
