They are so much cleaner. I tend to do a lot of deleting from the Yahoo Groups. One of my pet peeves from the YGs is the person who replies to a digest but doesn't bother changing the title to let me know what topic they've replied to. :???: I love the message boards when they are available.

If you're reentering your info every time it might be a cookie problem. Let me know. :grin: It’s something I turned on to help with Spam. :smile: But WP should be remembering you and when you come back to comment, all your information should already be in the boxes.

What's up with requiring the email address now? Is that something new in 1.5 ? or something you turned on to help with spam? I know, double commenting. What’s up with requiring the email address now?

Especially ones where you can hit a button for posts since last visits and easily scroll through them. But I was surprised when I had this discussion with a very web savvy friend just the other day. She hates message boards. Prefers everything email. Boggled my mind. That said, yahoo is terrible. Especially their search function. Takes forever! Also a dial up friend chimed in that digested emails were easier for her because she grabs them, logs off, then reads them. I forget about dial ups sometimes :mrgreen: Except when I go visit my parents...then I remember why I HATE it so much. Note to self: Must find free wifi spot with good coffee for next visit. I was surprised that RWA chose yahoo for their new "official" email loops though. I much prefer message boards myself.

I unsubscribed from a Yahoo group two days ago for all the reasons you pointed out. The loop was an unorganized mess and there wasn't a thread on it worth hunting for. :roll: You’re not alone.
