Which leads to something I have been thinking about as folks discuss how the forum can better serve to disseminate information to the membership. In order for this to be realized it would require that the majority of members read the boards, which I suspect from looking at the data on those viewing them, is not the case and that the majority of members do NOT use them so the impact (as a means of contacting the membership) is limited by that. This is not say it can not be useful for ÔÇ£getting the word out", but it must be taken into account as to what percentage is actually being reached and should be only one but one of several means, rather than the end all and be all some may view it as.

A possible different way to look at that is perhaps if we made that type of posting a matter of course, and announced it in the ON as well, more members might come here to read it. Maybe that is the type of info folks would like to see here. The old "if you build it, they will come" idea. It could be a read only sticky in the Clubhouse section. Then if someone wanted to discuss it, they could start a separate thread.
I think as we look for ways to make the forum better, recognizing it's value as a straightforward communication tool is a possibility.
