"announcement-only" implies that every member can announce things but discussion is not allowed. Groups where only admins can post should be called "newsletter" (or maybe something else) to prevent co

Benoit, personne ici ne comprend qu'est-ce que tu essais dire. Nous ne sommes pas des ordinateurs, nous sommes des êtres humaines, donc parle vers nous come a des êtres humaines. Si je dois deviner, j

I think I agree with John here. If you change the subject, you SHOULD create a new thread by doing so. Usually you change it because the original subjectline was too vague (e.g. "I have a question"),

Does a quiet group with 1000 members always cost you more than a busy one with just a few dozen? Do you have any statistics on how many groups there are, how big they are and how busy? Is there a way
