I prefer the email forums too. I don't think I've even ever visited the machsupport forums. It's really all about costs unfortunately.
I paid $110US to get one year of larger disk space on the groups.io forum for E-Leadscrew. At the end of the year if disk storage is below a certain amount I can drop it back down the free version. Some of the group members have been kind enough to donate small amounts to this one year subscription so it's turning out not to be as painful. We'll be moving this weekend. I'll post how easy or difficult it was when it's done. John Dammeyer From: mach1mach2cnc@... [mailto:mach1mach2cnc@...] Sent: October-18-19 5:48 AM To: mach1mach2cnc@...

According to the Yahoo notice: these groups aren’t closing, merely having a “major function reduction”.
Ok then. All content (files, messages etc) will be deleted, but messages can still be sent. Groups will be made private, and no new members unless the admin adds them. How long that will last is anyone’s guess… Tony From: mach1mach2cnc@... [mailto:mach1mach2cnc@...] Sent: Friday, 18 October 2019 11:48 PM To: mach1mach2cnc@...

Hi Art and all members:
The match forum held a big place in my old heart ,for many years, as well as other groups like CAD CAM DRO, Between these two groups, I have seen over the years a great number of products being developed , like Master5 ,Geckodrive, and others that my frail memory has hidden I the dark basement that is aging memory.. Sure it has been a great time and hope that the still healthy forums will take over were Yahoo has abandoned us in the middle of the journey. Cheers all See you around Enviado desde mi iPad |
