Oops

Well now, isn't that interesting.

I saw a post on the AKA Forum this morning and decided I might be able to Reply and make a point without getting Maggie in to too much trouble.

That prompted Maggie to get on the Forum and poke around. Suddenly, with no preamble, she is able to access the Board area of the Forum. So far so good, but a little warning and instruction would have been very welcome.

Observation One: There is no access to previous Board mail. There always used to be.

Observation Two: There is no access to to previous Board Actions. There always used to be.

He who controls the information controls the conversation.

There is a section on the Web Site (under the Resource Tab) that says "Board Only". She can't get in there yet.

But wait - there's more! There will no longer be Bulk E-Mail. Henceforth, communication with Members in the Region will be accomplished via the "Newsletter" function of the Forum/Web Site. What that means, only the Sitemaster knows for sure, and he ain't sharing yet.

So, using the Newsletter function could mean that Members will still receive the communication via e-mail. Or, it could mean that the Members will need to access the Web Site to get the information.

Wouldn't it be nice to know?
