Re: [Digital BW] Will this forum ever get streamlined?

Is it clunky?  Yes.  Is it a forum?  No, not in the internet sense of the word.  A forum in the 
internet sense of the word means something like photo.net or fredmiranda.com.  But 
that's neither here nor there.

I don't think you recognize the quantity of time and effort it takes to organize moderation.  
It is rediculous.  Do your reading on your printer, do the reading on RIPs, get familiar with 
photoshop, essentially do your homework and once you have a basic understanding of 
what you are doing with B&W printing and the terms used, you are going to be able to 
filter out all the irrelevant messages.

As per what I do, I subscribe to the digest so as to not fill my inbox, then I just read the 
headers from the digest, and if I'm really interested I read through the yahoo interface.

The only suggestion I have is if one replies to an email and is not quoting a line directly 
from it, please delete all the chatter below.
