I guess the main problem with this list is the lack of "modern" post markup. With too much code as "plain text" it gets really hard to read and comprehend. I start to think that a google group is not the right board for code related issues.
at least consider the possibility to post your issue at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/cakephp you could still re-link it here or sth. but "foreign" links (pastebin,...) are still links outside of this context, can be unreachable etc. so that's not ideal, either. the group is perfect for more general topics or with only a few lines of code. but other than that it is not really made for developers (especially web developers). as for the rudeness: 99% of all questions asked in a appropriate way get an appropriate answer. I sometimes catch myself writing a little bit too rude and regret this some time later on. But in the heat of the moment I am asking myself "How can someone have such a lack of communication skills and common sense" if he posts sth like "HELP ME. Please program me a messaging plugin. thank you". It's annoying - to all of those. Yes, its a good practice to test your own "patience" with this patient. But sometimes its just too annoying. I am certainly not saying that rudeness of a thread starter should be treated with rudeness. But it is not only the fault of administrators or contributors - the thread starter has a show a certain respect for the group and the members of it, as well. and this is most certainly not always the case. As I said: A serious and good outlines question (that also shows that you at least tried to come up with a solution yourself for trivial issues) has always been treated as one. As far as I remember the last years. -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
