Re: [pfSense Support] forums vs mailing list

[Mojo Jojo]

I am always a bigger fan of forums, where do I find this forum?   Of course, will take the PfSense help wherever it's offered :)   I just think forums have more features, easier to use and I don't have to download and store a bunch of stuff I don't care about, instead I can browse the threads or search for what I need.   I know there are many that prefer list but I just can't see the point of having my email client notifying me of new mail every two seconds for a bunch of emails I could care less about most times.   --Todd ----- Original Message ----- From: Holger Bauer To: support@pfsense.com Sent: Sunday, November 06, 2005 6:36 PM Subject: AW: [pfSense Support] forums vs mailing list The forum was a kind of "experiment". There were many people complaining about the lists demanding a forum. We don't shut down the ML because of the forum. Actually it's up to the user to decide if the forum or the ml is the better way. From what it looks at the moment, most people seem to like the forums more. We could try to setup a mailinfo if a new post is started in the forum to help keep the ml informed what's going on. Would you think this is a good idea to have?   Holger -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: alan walters [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Montag, 7.

Felt I ad to voice my concern. I follow pfsense from a development point of view. I know forums are great for archiving but very annoying for people that just want to stay up to date.   Sorry for the gripe but felt it was nessercery.     Regards   alan ____________ Virus checked by G DATA AntiVirusKit
