Re: New NCRS Member & New TDB User Introductions

Rich,
Do you...or does anyone... know status of the new NCRS forums site? Why is there no communication about it? It looks to be all I have been suggesting for quite some time for forum structure...which could include a new member/introduction subforums. This sticky is a good idea but a dedicated subforum might be even better.

There are numerous topic areas we could communicate about that are not technical. As one example Regional subforums would allow inclusion of all members (like me) who intentionally do not engage in Facebook or anything else like it.
Kind regards,
Keith

Hi Keith, Your post was moved over here so we don't interrupt the intent of the other thread. Sorry for the response delay.

There has been activity as John W mentioned regarding a new Forum software. It's in test stages, but officially, I can relay the official statement by Administration...

I do appreciate your response. however...moving my post over here is as good as burying it...probably the true intent. no traffic. I wish NCRS well but I am done trying to contribute any thought leadership. It will be what it will be. Too much inertia. Communication and community will continue to be a challenge. But so be it. It's the old..."God give me strength..." presume you know the rest.
Regards,

Keith- I really don't follow your logic or complaint... please help me understand your 'thought leadership' on this topic.
First of all, you interrupted a thread specifically designed for 'New Member Intros', in an attempt to further your individual agenda.
(this is typically referred to as 'Hijacking a Thread'... something frowned upon, inappropriate, and totally disrespectful, but I digress)

You requested dedicated subforums, but when your post was moved into the PROPER dedicated subforum (Suggestions)... you complained.
The VOLUNTEER moderators executed your subforum plan, exactly as you've suggested/recommended... so why are you now upset???
Subforums can be a double edge sword, especially for smaller groups... you've just experienced one of their many drawbacks.

Hi,
Seems whatever I say or do is viewed negatively or disruptive. My silence should solve that.
Kind regards,

The IT Team is a very small, and hard working core group... I applaud their time, efforts, and dedication (and they are EXTREMELY busy).
If you feel you're being ignored, disrespected, or silenced... that is far from the truth, as ideas take time to review, and $$$ to execute.
The IT Team has previously outlined submittal procedures to follow... have you done that, or even contacted your Regional Director?
Attempting to circumvent their request, may not be the best plan to follow...
