  1. Dear Group,

    After having posted here for more than four years, I am on
    the edge of quitting my regular presence in
    rec.sport.unicycling. I've had enough of the continual
    breakdowns of the gateway between the newsgroup and the
    forum, and the hassle I feel I have to go through when it
    happens (alerting, reposting, catching up). For various
    reasons the forum interface doesn't appeal to me, so I use a
    newsgroup reader. But if my posts don't get through on the
    forum and I can't read the posts made on the forum I'm sort
    of in a vacuum.

    I sincerely thank you all for your comraderie, good advice,
    humour and all the other good things. Without this newsgroup
    I would never have picked up unicycling, let alone the cool
    skills that I can now do, or aspire to do. Of course I plan
    to continue riding, but maybe without the inspiration from
    all of you it will fade away.

    I will keep checking from time to time if the connection is
    up but if not, I just give up. I can't handle this anymore.

    P.S. I may not read responses in this thread. PM's via the
    forum site should work, as do emails. Klaas Bil -

  3. Thanks for all the support, which only made it to my screen
    now that the connection is back up. My post was interpreted
    a bit too dramatically; I said I won't poke around anymore
    when the connection is down again. And since it was now down
    longer than ever before, I was beginning to suspect that
    Gilby is just not interested to invest effort (and money?)
    in just a few percent of the community. In which case I
    might be out forever. In fact I liked the hour extra per day
    :-)

    And even if I would start using the forum (which I DON'T
    plan to), there would be no statistics page at the end
    of the year.
