Snipping a bunch of flame bait:

So, why _aren't_ you supporting NNTP or SMTP access?

Becuase the project isn't to the stage yet. Functionality is a longer

process to integrate and you have to have the interface framework

sometimes done first to do some of the other stuff. I went to get the

framework done so that I could actually spend the time on the funtionality

of the backend without wasing my time.

This is ok, you are in the middle of a work in progress, as such there is no reason to demand a switch in our operating procedures as group until you have something ready for general release. As such remember that their is a strong request that SMTP or NNTP be supported by any such forum in the long run.

I'm acutally really surprised how hard

core some people are seeming with their email. It's the complete opposet

I'm used to seeing.

Well, that's the point, isn't it? Email allows diversity. Web fora

don't.

I don't know what you're basing that on or your criteria, cause I view it

the opposet way. I find email so much more limiting then a forum, which is

why I flop between completely ignoring the list when not actively playing

GZG games and reading it all. It's just way to clunky for me.

Jaime, it is the difference in the way people work. Just because you can't someone else's process doesn't mean it's not valid nor reasonable to dismiss.
