Not to mention that every email comes with a in your face advertisement. "Preferable to this system" no in my opinion, and I've been using yahoo and forums for a number of years now. I think those guys are missing out in a forum like this can offer.
I agree with ynneb, using Yahoo is not a professional way to communicate with it's users, at the very least he could run his own board on his site.
But than again i'm a little bias. |
Well we don't get spammed much. I get no adverts on the email except one from Yahoo which is no worse than a signature file..
Well as it is, all we are paying for is Art,, not a lot of overhead costs plus he doesn't even moderate the list someone else does. I wouldn't be surprised taht if it ever becomes a finished product he might pretty the site up a little bit.
Actualy I see more Adverts here than I do Spam on Yahoo, but then I have yahoo Email the postiings and use Pegasus to read them.
What this has that is superior to the his mail list is inline pictures and attachments. But that could be turned on however everyone runs scared of that. I am not sure why as The 7x10 group has always allowed attachments and I have never been hit by a virus thru it.
Now I don't want to sound unappreciative of this effort because it is very valuable.
If I had to read the Yahoo Groups online then I would prefer this setup..
So thanks for this site.
