Hello everybody It's been brought to my attention, quite properly, that the number of replies to welcome messages is growing to such an extent that list traffic is becoming both off topic and out of control for some members.
Having reviewed the recent posts, I share the concern of the member who raised this with me. So, may I request that members please do not reply to welcome messages on list. That was originally part of the welcome message; I don't know how it got removed, but it's been re-added. I understand the desire of people to introduce themselves. However, other members are replying to the intros, replying to the reply to the intros, and so it goes on. So, we are now going to have to try and monitor this more diligently in an effort to keep list traffic topical. So, in summary; please do not reply to welcome messages. I have contacted some off list about this, but please, all, let's keep traffic on topic so that it doesn't get out of hand. We're losing members because of this, and those members have contributed a great deal of useful information to the group. So your cooperation and understanding would be appreciated. We are going to watch this carefully from this point onwards. Thank you.
