All, Sent a private message to macker a little while ago and he asked me to post it to the thread for comments. And Rick, since you brogut this subject up your comments in particular would be greatly appreciated ... regards, John Go DGIV Go !! ---------------------------------------------------------- To: macker From: John F. Thursday, May 7 1998 12:59PM ET Macker, I originally had addressed the message immediately below to Rick D. in response to his post #3936 but decided to send it to you as a private message instead (given your leadership position on the DGIV thread and because I am rather new to SI and the DGIV community of investors). Just want to be slow to suggest anything ... you guys have been doing such a great job !! ---------------------------------------------------------- Rick, I am sure that many agree with your assessment about the amount of time it takes to keep up with this thread. Of course many of us enjoy the discussions a great deal!! But, keeping up is a problem. And, if it is a problem for those who have been following for a while, it is much worse for newcomers. A prospective investor, upon visiting SI, in search of information on Digitcom is confronted with 4 threads: DGIV - Research Posts ONLY Digitcom (DGIV-OTC-bb) Information Thread DGIV-A-HOLICS ... No SHOES allowed! No WHINERS-allowed DGIV - Good Prospects? ... and the Clubhouse The DIGITCOM (DGIV-OTC-bb)Information Thread has helped a GREAT deal as has the DGIV - Research Posts ONLY thread started by Jim Chellis. But newcomers may have some trouble figuring out where to start. I think it might help a little if the Research Only thread was renamed "DGIV - Introductory Information" ... Not sure what Jim would think about this and was wondering if you had any thoughts on this idea. ?? And, when the financials start coming in it might be nice to have a separate "DGIV Financials" thread. Question: Can't believe I am going to ask this (given the fact that we already have 4 threads) but ... would it be possible and do you think it would be beneficial to set up a number of threads by content as follows: DGIV - Financial Results Only (Company Posts Only) DGIV - Company Press Releases (Company Posts Only) DGIV - Articles on the Company Only (No Chat Please) Regarding the first 2 of these 3, can you request SI to restrict posting access to a thread so that only a few individuals are allowed to post (ie: Roger Templeton)?? regards, John -------------------------------------------------------- Anyway Macker, just food for thought... Am sure you also recognize that the easier we make it for prospective investors to get the big picture quickly the better off we all will be. thoughts?? Thank you very much for your time Sir !! best regards, John --------------------------------------------------------------
