<div>Hey Henk,</div> <div> </div> <div>"but some of the threads should have been<BR>restricted to members I think. For PR purposes we still have<BR>the trip reports and photos on our website."</div> <div> </div> <div>I agree with this, though it is rather time consuming for an admin to approve/filter each topic.</div> <div> </div> <div>There are a couple ways to get around this.</div> <div> </div> <div>1. Create another members only list... not many would like this probably.</div> <div> </div> <div>2. Create an online web forum with member and non member discussion areas. I can help with this as I have created many.</div> <div> </div> <div>Peace,</div> <div>Scott</div> <div> </div> <div>PS: I can give a link to an old one I created for the CI National Marine Sanctuary as an example to get the idea across to them. Though they shot the idea down as their lawers wouldn't support it and some members
are 'timid' when it comes to technology.</div> <div><BR><BR><BR><B><I>Henk Aling <aling13@cox.net></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">> Another good self check is...<BR>><BR>> Would my mother be embarrassed if she read what I just wrote?<BR><BR>When I started this thread I was not thinking of harassment, more<BR>about things like (bad) product reviews, or cutting and pasting<BR>copyrighted material.
