I have been on the list for some time and read many good posts, and have seen
some challenging times and have found the information great. That being said I
have great experience with message boards, one in particular is the Chris
Craft Club, www.chris-craft.org, it is called Boat Buzz. I find the Healey
brand similar to the Chris Craft Brand and how the message board is broken out
makes sense and could see something similar to it working for the Healey
community.

Subject: [Healeys] Message boards...I won't ask again...
I have to say, I am scratching my head.? All the reasons you folks say you like
the list is exactly why I suggested the message board format.? The message
board has a community feel, you know everyone there, and you can communicate
instantly in the specific discussion you want to participate in.? You can
organize the forum by topics, set up local communities for local meets.? You
can post pictures and have them archived on the board.? The discussions are
always there in tact and easy to find,?etc.? Some of my closest friends are
people I have actually met through the Honda S2000 messsage board S2Ki.com.? We
have impromptu meets every week and big regional meets every month.? Some say
they like the list because they like this group.? I do too.? My suggestion was
for this group to?migrate en mass to?a message board.? I'm not sure I
understand how we would lose the community if we all went to the same place.?
Maybe my suggestion of growing the community by attracting younger
people to the community isn't desireable?? The BCF is not the format I had in
mind.? One forum page for the Healeys is inadequate.? I envisionsed a multipage
format just for the Healey group.I guess the Message boards the rest of you
have used were not good communities.? I have seen some that have a lot of
fighting and childish behavior, so I can certainly see how you might have had a
bad experience.? In any event, I now understand why the migration hasn't
occurred.? This question was like asking a Morgan owner why he hasn't converted
his car to rack and pinion steering.? Just kidding!!!BillBoston area65
