[HPFGU-OTChatter] Consolidating All the Groups Into One

[Lee Storm (God Is The Healing Force)]

[bboyminn]:
| I think, given that the post count is very low now, merging
| books and movies into one discussion group would be fine. I 
| mean, books or movies, it is still all about HP.
| 
| But I don't like the idea of merging the OTChatter group. This
| is a group of friend who have a common interest, people I trust,
| that I can ask anything -
| 
| "Why does my computer make this funny noise?"
| 
| "Anybody got a good recipe for Macaroni and Cheese?"
| 
| "How can I lose 10 pounds by Sunday?"
| 
| But, even if it was allowed, I wouldn't feel comfortable 
| posting such questions in the main group even if it were
| allowed.
| 
| Also, by allowing OTChatter in the main group, you run the 
| risk of turning the group in to a general discussion group. 
| The HP aspect will get completely lost. 
| 
| So, I think it is worth while to merge HP books with HP movies,
| but valuable to keep OTChatter as a separate discussion group.

[Lee]:
My thoughts exactly, guys and gals.

As I posted in the feedback list, there's more intimacy here.  I've looked
through posts I've saved and never cease to be deeply touched at how the
members here rallied around those who needed uplifting because of illness,
depression, surgery, other life troubles.  We had members to advise as to
computer problems, where to find things, ideas for Potter Parties and
crafts, etc., and just a whole lot of other stuff.

If we had a small population, the merging of the OT Chat with everything
else would be okay.  But given the size of our list base, it's better to
keep OTChat and Main separate.

Peace,

Lee :-)
