Hi Barry
Wouldn't real-time posting be an invitation to spam, etc? I know it
doesn't happen on 3830 but that is not a reflector where conversations
go on. like on this one. Mostly just score reporting. Sometimes we
really need a moderator. 73

Sorry to interrupt the "please copy" discussion, but...
I wonder what everyone thinks about transitioning this 1980s-style
email list over to a modern web-based forum format such as vBulletin?
Advantages:
-Real-time posting, so that someone's question doesn't get 15 almost
identical replies caused by the multi-hour delay from the time a post
is made until it is approved for distribution
-An easier way to follow a topic, seeing all previous, relevant posts
on the topic in a logical sequence
-An easier way to follow a topic, as each subject is in its own thread
-Easy access to archives and search
-Ability to easily skip threads/posts that don't interest you.
With all the tech-savvy people that participate here, I'm surprised
this hasn't been addressed before, or has it? The 3830scores web site
was a great improvement over the earlier 3830 list. Why not the same
for cq-contest - your thoughts?
