There's some serious problems with Yahoo Clubs,
besides the fact that it's rather buggy and the interface
sucks. The two most important are in their
guidelines:

1.Do not harass, abuse, or threaten other members.

2.Do not post content that is obscene or otherwise
objectionable. 

What's the point of quizbowl discussions
if we can't harass, abuse, and be
objectionable?

Also, what the hell is up with that question mark thing
on the home page? It used to be big and even uglier,
and I thought it was some sort of default image that
stays until the club founder puts a real one on. Then
it got all small and I realized, GOOD LORD, someone
actually spent time making that thing.

So we need a
real mailing list. R. generously agreed to continue
maintaining it. For those who have been complaining, are you
prepared to offer a server to host a mailing list? If you
care what the domain name is, then you have too much
time on your hands. Turn your computer off and go take
a walk, or read a book, or make a packet for the
first playoff round of next year's Penn Bowl that's
actually well written and makes some attempt to follow the
distribution, just do something. So CBI will have to send their
announcements to qb_at_...? HELL YEAH! If R. wanted to censor
messages from ACF and CBI, he could have done it on the
iastate list too. Why do you think he would start now?


If your inbox is too small to handle a real mailing
list, then get a better ISP, or just unsubscribe so you
won't have to worry about it anymore and so we won't
have to listen to any more unjustified
whining.

props to my man Josh Allen for bringing some sarcasm to
yahoo clubs.
