Just my opinion... *cough* NOT high volume?! 50+ messages a day is not high volume? *boggle* (is that analogous to the US senator who considers middle class to be those who earn between $350k-$700k? and because he only makes $250k, he therefore considers himself lower class? ;) and yes, i know lists like M:tG generate a lot more traffic, but then all the other mailing lists that i myself am on are only on the order of a dozen or so messages a WEEK, so i guess it's all relative :P :P I'd personally like to get a pointer to it into the CircleMUD mailout :P that you get when you join the list... but I have no idea whatsoever :P who is in charge of that anymore... anyone out there know? good idea - maybe this combined with a once-a-month posting would do the trick (how many people save that initial mailing anyway? ;) if not, than twice a month might be more in order. or, maybe just a short note every week or two giving a pointer, so that you aren't actually sending the entire bloody thing every time, thereby saving everybody a lot of grief... :P -- :P Erm... Yeah. Whatever. what a brilliant, succint .sig - best i've seen on the net so far :)
