Wow Mike. I definitely agree that a few hundred bucks is a lot for a struggling business to pay, and that's why it is important for us to make it worth it. We aren't looking to silence the voices of roasters such as yourself, and it's not just about trying to bring back old timers. We're trying to make the board work. A lot of this has to do with creating accountability for posting on the board. The last board became an unmanageable mine-field, impossible to clean up and whose participation slowed to a drip. Before we can open things up to everybody, we need to make sure that we can actually turn it around and make it viable and lively again. Yes, you can still read the topics, and if you had a question or something to say regarding a topic, you could email the person or one of the persons who posted. If you had a question about anything or wanted to make a comment regarding something, you could email me at ceschooley@yahoo.com and if I couldn't help you then I would bust my volunteer ass to direct you to someone who I thought could. I would do all that I could to help you. There are resources, this venue (BEx) is a great one. If we hear from our members that they feel that we need to open this up, then I'm all for it. I'll even post the question there right now. At the end of the day, we needed to rebuild it and make it work again. I do hope you'll email me, if only to curse me out more, but I swear that I would do anything I could to answer any questions that you had.
