Re: Streamlining - a word of caution

2005-03-26 by pdcorlis

I used to belong to a great group - full of wise and helpful folks. It was almost as good as 
this forum. Then many got fed-up with the host, software, and user interface. Folks were 
in agreement that a change could be a very good thing indeed. As the group got closer 
and closer to a decision, a few strong members saw the implementation very differently - 
then egos got in the mix. In the end the group fragmented into three different groups on 
three different servers. Sadly, there were enough hurt feelings that the whole enterprise 
lost focus and it all fell apart. Change can be good, but only IF the group survives. I am not 
at all opposed to a cleaner, more searchable forum - but I'd hate to see history repeat 
itself.

PLEASE be careful here.
