I apologize if I annoyed anyone with my posting. It was not my intent. Nor was it my intent to downgrade the product, Millennia's support of the product or the users group. My experience with all three have been mostly upstanding. Just have a lot of experience with user groups and thought I would try to share some of that knowledge.
To also clarify, my posting commented on moderators spending time on teaching people how to use the forum (in that case Yahoo Groups) and taking effort away from helping people learn the product. That is the downside of any mechanism you use, as evident even by some of the recent postings here. That's the nature of the beast. The point I was trying to make (and may not have done a good job at it) was that if you can simplify it then the moderators and users CAN focus more on the more important product related issues. The last I heard, the only ones who thought I was a trouble maker was my kids...

This group is a group of folk using Legacy, and sharing knowledge and frustrations - and yes, certainly help for the newbies, of which I am more or less one. I hope that majority don't see it as time educating new users, but instead people helping people. I don't think we have a problem with spamers or flamers - do we? I haven't noticed anyone trying to sell coffee mugs, shirts etc., or am I too dense to see them? Cruises, yes, what a chance to learn and yet have an enjoyable getting to know one another in person! I am so sorry that the writer of the e-mail on disfunctional groups has had that most unfortunate experience in other groups he has been on - or part of. I hope he was not part of the problem.
