I agree with you Espen. I too have seen online communities fall apart with things like this.

Also, I (like most people, I think) look at my emails every day, and most of the time many times each day. I'm also able to view them on my phone easily when I'm out, away or just off the computer.

I didn't know about other people, but I personally don't think I'll be able to login to the forum more than every over day at most. More likely only about once a week.

However, I do see Mark's points about why a forum is better in some ways, and I have signed up.

I am worried this will split the community. I think it is better to keep things as they are.
It's not every day a new vault of JAM recordings are opened - january was not our regular month. We should be able to handle the load on the mailing list.

Just my opinion - I will of course follow if everyone transfers to the new forum. But I have bad experiences with similar attempts in the past.

Hi Jammers.

I dread stepping on Dean's toes with this impertinence, but I have created an experimental JAM forum at

http://b9fx.com

("Benign Effects"... geddit? Oh...OK. It was just a domain I had lying around doing nothing, so I thought I'd use it.)

It uses myBB software and seems to be pretty easy to administer and use.

I've spent a total of 30 minutes setting it up (20 of which went into the ugly logo) so there is a lot to add if you are at all interested.

I have vacancies for forum moderators (who can take control of an individual forum), super-moderators (who have power over all forums) and super-keen contributors could even become full administrators and control the entire operation while I'm at the beach.

Please visit, register, play around and let me know what could be added, changed or improved. I'm willing to support the forum for the long-haul if people want to use it. Otherwise we can stay here at Yahoo.

Over to you.
Regards
Mark
