Thanks to Spencer for adding this new discussion forum.

However, it seems that it is getting off to a slow start.  Not sure if there are already enough discussion forums out there that people don't feel a need to post to a new one.

Maybe everyone is just busy getting ready for Christmas :)

Yes, its a bit slow but people could be busy with other things too. Well we can always post a picture for discussion. Complain about the weather or whatever else comes to mind. Heres one from way back in 1970. New shed under construction as a winter project. Dad on one of his favourite jobs , pushing snow with the Cockshutt 50.

It is going to take a while to catch on. I hope that it does, I like the ability to "overlook" threads when needed.

neat pict. Ralph.  The picture angle sure makes that 50 look like a clydesdale.
That's a real tractor:)

I would say a slow start is expected - at least I did.   ATIS has been know for the mailing lists, not the bulletin boards.  Last year when I disabled the boards I had initially for security reasons, it took me a while to find one (this one:  vBulletin) that was as secure as one could hope for a commercial product.
 
I hope everyone experiments with all the features, including pictures.  The multimedia feature of bulletin boards is one of the things that I think makes them nice.   This experimentation will help to motivate and encourage others as well.

Thanks Spencer,
I think this will be a nice addition, especially with the option to be able to post pictures.

I expect there will be a lot of wait and see till people accept the new site. Many  of us go kicking and screaming into new knowledge. Some are just scared of change.:confused:

Looking at the membership list I see that many have registered. :) Some are familiar names :D and some new aliases... Gene

Just like list traffic is sometimes slow, I suspect we will see the same thing here at times. Worst part is having to learn the new aliases!

Well, at least we already know who RG8800 is!:D  Some of the others may take a while though.
