For the record, I prefer the mailing list.

I mentioned several forums in my last message. It just occurred to me
that it's been over a month since I've checked several of them, and I
really need to check more often.

There lies the problem. I have to remember to go there. I'm deep in
the middle of roleplaying stuff right now, but I've been keeping up
with the GZG lists because they hit my inbox. If not for that, I
wouldn't have been reading any GZG stuff for months.

In theory, Yahoo Groups was supposed to fit in the middle between
mailing lists and forums. It has a web interface and you can get the
messages e-mailed to you. Yahoo dropped the ball. The forum interface
is just a limited e-mail interface with no ability to thread. Yahoo's
e-mailing frequently messes up and drops people.

If someone could come up with a web forum with a vibrant e-mail
component, that would be wonderful. Until then, I'd prefer to have it
as an e-mail list.
