Subject: Re: [MOPO] About MoPo
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.

People need to learn who to use email. It's very easy.

The decision was made many many moons ago to
make the default REPLY TO address the address
of the original sender, rather than the mopo-l
address. This was done because there were
several instances of people who had meant their
reply be private to the posts 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.

In the last few years I have been getting a lot
of private responses and comments from MoPo
members. 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.
