while I have been guilty on the days of my auctions closing of multiple posts, I'd be very happy to be limited to one dealer post per day per person

that will prevent any dealer from drowning out other conversation and other dealers whose material gets ignored due to a preponderance of multiple daily posts on a regular basis, which ultimately causes exits from teh forum by people who didn't come here for that

I don’t mind abiding by any rule the list admin wants to set up. But I don’t think David’s suggestion is going to increase
discussion on MOPO.

MovieArt has plenty of options “to advertise.” We’ve sold a number of posters from announcements on MOPO, and
I think those buyers were pleased to know about those posters.

This forum (like all forums) are set up with the sole purpose of bringing like-minded people together to discuss a common subject; in fact it still says that on the MoPo webpage "Movie Poster Discussion Group". But if one looks at one's inbox over any period of time, it looks more like a Movie Poster Advertising Group, to the point that it is the most common and voluminous subject to hit my mail box each week - it is simply, by definition, spam so why comment publicly when almost all there is to comment to is spam?

The opportunity to get in front (for free) of 370 odd people (and all one has to do is hit send) is obviously too much of a juicy carrot for some to ignore and so they take advantage of it.

I would suggest that one advertising post (or any variable of same) per week would bring back the talk and perhaps turn this into a Movie Poster Discussion Group rather than a Movie Poster Advertising Forum.

Hi John, I totally agree with you but we probably have to accept that - over the long life of MOPO - schisms have emerged & become fixed. MOPO has become increasingly bad-tempered & tribal over the years and so terrific people who used to post don't now post very often. I'm thinking about people like Andrea & Sue but there are many others. Probably there's a silent majority who just feel it's not worth the trouble posting in case they get attacked.

I agree with Tommy that some people might mistakenly hit the "Reply" button rather than "Reply All" but I am really talking about people who deliberately reply "Offlist" with private comments. They often make very good and valid points and its a pity that they dont want to post to everyone on the List.

This was done because there were several instances of people who had meant their reply be private to the post’s original author but instead the message went out to MoPo at large. We can revisit this decision if you like, but I do remember a couple of very private negotiations that accidentally went public. You can always use REPLY ALL, then your post gets sent to the original author AND the group.
Opinions on changing the REPLY default?

I suspect part of the problem is that when you click on 'reply' it addresses the response to only the original sender by default, and you have to scroll down to send to all the subscribers. Might be better if that could be reversed.

It does seem that MoPo generates a great deal of discussion but a lot of it is "Offlist" for the recipient only so the thoughts of various members are never made public to the entire list. I wonder if this is just applicable to MoPo because all of the email addresses are readily available. I would imagine that this wouldn't happen so much on the other discussion boards because it takes more time and effort to contact members off list. Maybe it might be better for people to post their thoughts publicly rather than private emails which defeats the purpose of a discussion board.
Just an observation.
