I am slightly confused here... if you are talking about the EpicA@yahoogroups.com it is still used but only for EpicA and it is moderated by not only myself but a couple of others, whilst it is moderated (new members must be approved) this never takes longer than 24 hours.
The need for a second group does seem kinda silly.
The reason for three lists was that NetEPIC is kinda for NetEPIC only, Epic was mainly Epic40k, although it tends to only discuss SM/TL these days and EpicA for the new Epic game, EPIC: Armageddon.
As for the new group - I wish it luck, how many members does it have? The whole point of the original group was that Jervis was there to answer any questions the list threw up and he still does that as well as providing a forum for debate.

I have seen the new mailing list, it has 62 members compared to the original mailing lists 245... what is he playing at?
I thought the idea was to bring the EPIC community together, this is why we have ONE forum, ONE mailing list for each game system and ONE nexus to bind it all together.
This seems kinda counter productive to me.

There were at least 3 people who tried to join the EpicA list over the course of a couple weeks and never recieved a response from a moderator. I don't know who is listed as the moderator on the page, but direct e-mails did not work either.
All that is hearsay, but it was well-discussed on the Playtest forum.
Why there? Because as people kept posting fan lists, they were requested to go post on the EpicA page, but were unable.
The breakdown led to the creation of a fan rule section on the playtest board (which I still think is wrong), and a separate Yahoo group for army lists.

Simple solution - create and "Epic Undisputed" board, for all versions of Epic, and affiliate it with this forum, the Nexus and all the sites.
Have other mods come in and help run it, shut down and move members from other boards and STOP ALL THE CONFUSION!!
Cheers
Chris
PS, I think I am I member of about 4 boards like that!

I spend most of my time here and on a rare occasion, Epic Yahoo. But 2 are enough for me. I'm easy ...

Me too...I live here now.
I occaisionally browse the official EA playtest board, but havent done so regularly for about 5 months now.
I like it here... I don't have the time to go surfing all over the place so I go where I like the people and enjoy the conversations; game, historical, serious and otherwise
yes...here I shall stay.

I am a Lurker on the Netepic group, Member of the EA list, epic list and of course active member of this forum.
I hardly ever browse the playtest forum anymore, since my last bout of ill health when my playtesting stops.
I simply dont have the time to be as seriosly involved as I once was in all the epic related lists & more besides.
I do however do some very vein searching through the playtest board - after somone pointed out to me that I had been mentioned in a thread, I sometimes search for "TuffSkull" to see if my names come up again & see if I can help out with anything. So, i guess if anyone does ever want me on the board, say my nickname & I'll appear in the thread

This was my first Epic and BFG site, after I met CyberShadow on Portent. He invited me over to the old version of this place, and I've stayed here since.
I sometimes wander to the other sites, but it's a rare occasion. I usually visit when I've been directed from a link of, for example, someones pics. I'll then have a quick browse around.
I have a few different 'groups' I'm a member of, so dont have time to visit too many places. I'm glad that this place seems to be one of the best around. Not only for how well its presented (thanks C.S.) but for all the great guys that also visit here.
Thank you everyone!!!

I am on too many lists and forums to even remember, and I had to cut down recently. I read and lurk in most places, but rarely post anywhere but here.

Hi!
Pretty much what I have done. I find this forum suits me and I really lack any motivation to post elsewhere.
