This is obviously not going to be a pick-up thread, so I've changed the title to be more appropriate. |

This is a perfect example of the problem I see with constantly starting new pickup threads (and this is not directed at Brad for starting this thread). The 4th thread, while it had 48 posts, only had about 20-25 posts that actually had scans of new pickups. The other half of the posts were simply comments about the cards posted. Further, it took absolutely no time at all to load the thread with a broadband connection. We should go back to one on the 1st and one on the 15th if you ask me. |

Josh - leon already explained that twice a moth won't work because the images are stored by the server for only 1 week. Now, you could suggest everyone use external image hosting to avoid this problem... |

I don't think we should rush right into this "committee" thing. We should probably appoint an advisory board to look into the viability of a committee having an impact. |

there needs to be a "head-case" committee. But only formed by grown men! |

But first we need a search committee to nominate an advisory board to look into the viability of a committee. |

It was great meeting Paul today, and seeing Brett and Lyman again, and we all had a very good time at the chili cook off. I took 3 Tums on the way home and all was good. |

What's the big deal if another pickup thread gets started "too early?" |

Well said. Take your own advice. How many times have you stated that personal attacks should be avoided? That was uncalled for. Ive only raised an issue - the fact that you want to brush it aside and ignore it is your right. Unlike you, however, I would argue that that is not "good management". In the real world, if one person makes a complaint and its a valid one, it deserves attention even if everyone else is fine with the status quo. Obviously you dont feel that way or that the issue Ive raised has merit - fine. But if I choose to play by your rules, you cant then blame me for doing so. |

If you want to discuss it more, then fine. It can be entertainment for others. I don't think the several responses and reasoning I gave you for not changing is "ignoring and brushing it aside". You really feel that way? And no, I guess I shouldn't have gotten personal but when people act like they are going to try and ruin a good thing, ie.. the pick up threads (saying "this should be fun"), then I get a little defensive. Sorry about that...you are right, I should know better...but I am human and it happens....best regards |

what if we started a new pickup thread every monday? That way its once a week so the net54 can host the files for those that use it. Just a thought. |

This is really stupid. Just leave the pickup threads as they are...I don't know why everyone has to act like a bunch of babies about such stupid junk. Who really cares if they get started over after post 35 or 56? Some people just have to find things to bitch about. |

In the year I have been on the board I have never seen a problem with the pickup threads, some run short and others long. It all evens out. If it is not broken don't fix it. Yes Leon, I'm still on dial up. Going to DSL or cable would eat into my card buying budget. (insert smiley here) |
