Yes, there was/is some mis-information floating about. It's always best to post your concerns in the Members Only Section and have them addressed with factual support.

It happens when people hear something second hand and jump to conclusions!

Boy, ain't the truth. Especially in the world of fast "inaccurate" communication.

i keep seeing "we need to discuss this in the members only section which to me reads as "you're not a member you're opinion doesn't count". the question that should be asked is "why aren't you a member and how can we get you back"

Well said Kevin. I know that it comes across that way to me. I think this is especially important if the reason for membership interruption is related to the newsletter in any way - which is why I thought this thread would be appropriate.

Cheers!

Kevin,

The opinion of non-members who are of legitimate intent (constructive or otherwise), does matter. In most cases, that intent is apparent. We are always interested in improving membership.

My comment regarding discussion in the Members Only forum, has to do specifically with answering questions pertaining to Registry business matters. We consider the Registry much as a family. We discuss family matters privately among ourselves.

The original subject matter of this thread is a newsletter poll. Fielding concerns about rumors and such has nothing to do with the newsletter poll.... The question "I heard the newsletter is being cancelled" originated from some non-members expousing non-factual information, trying to incite members, i.e. trolling. Answering those concerns is best handled within the Members Only forum.

I like the newsletter and am a strong supporter of it. I am very dismayed about our performance regarding the newsletter. Excuses only go a short ways in justifying the lack of results.

I do wonder though, how many members may have allowed their membership to lapse or resigned, due to that fact alone.

If you would like to pursue this element of the discussion, I would suggest that you initiate a new thread with an appropriate name, so we can stay on topic here.

My big problem is that I PAYED for it! I think I received one (1). Refunds?

Refunds weren't issued?
