Ok my turn.... We actually had quite a few meetings last year, and even if we did only have 3 meetings, they are all well broadcasted and plenty of notification is given so you couldn't even make it to 3 meetings? Seriously, everyone who is involved with any user group should be applauded for the effort they put in, what ever their capacity is and those who scald them should keep their traps shut. Being involved in an organisation capacity for the user groups is a voluntary thing and give what ever time they can, hence why we have co-managers. It is comments like this that make people not want to come and serve no purpose other than to bring down the groups rather than having any positive impact at all. As Mark hinted at, instead of complaining how about contributing. Again i would like to emphasise my appreciation for people like Mark, Robin and everyone else who puts their hand up to contribute to theirs and other user groups. Without people like them driving the groups and donating their valuable time we wouldnt have user groups at all.

Is that we should get involved in our UG, well what if that user group meets like 3 times a year? Then offer to take over the UG and do a better job. The change doesn't neccessarily have to come from the top - 9/10 times it comes from the trenches up.
