Pat, I wish you had suggested these things earlier. This is helpful. Some of the above... we can do that.

1) we feel that way too and are working on it
2) we didn't know that it was important to the membership, but we can do so in the future (if the mod agrees - we wouldn't do so if they asked for it to be unannounced)
3) I don't know what to do about that. The mods are always listed at the bottom of each forum. We have a PM greeting sent to all new members - I suppose it could be added to that.
4) yes, we DO need to be specific. General complaints aren't helpful. Specific suggestions are.

Thanks
