Re: Importing Database #MacSupportCentral

 

I'll give you 110 reasons, it cost $110 dollars. Reason #111, very few people use the archives and most is outdated.
#112, some member didn't have access depending upon how they joined yahoo groups, so they must not be critical.

I joined using an email, not by joining yahoo groups and then joining MSC. I've been a member since 2011 and have never has access to the archives. $110 is about 50 cents per active member. I am guessing that is about $25 per user of the archives.

On the oldest online MUG, the went with the option of taking donations. It is also one of the larger yahoo groups if you take the yahoo stats verbatim. So far 86 active members have moved over, and taken in about $50 in donations.

Is there a good reason to not transfer the groups archived post? I did not see any discussion about this.

Two other groups I am in have transferred all their posts; 15 and 13 years respectively. Surely space is not an issue and being able to occasionally consult older posts can be useful and may avoid re-asking the same question.
