I think Joe and Christine tried to deal with this problem partly with the creation of the newbies board...
Earlier, I posted in behalf of those who felt slighted by being inundated by posts containing articles, because I do think the primary function of the board should be general support of all HER2's who arrive, and I think for many, that first impression is so important.... For those who feel overwhelmed by the complexity of it all, the articles can end up intimidating a fairly significant number from participating more fully.
My personal bias is that I am more than grateful for the insightful and diligent postings of articles.
Take a quick review of the posts on the main board. I suggest that those who feel like I do and want to see the articles might want to put in a little more time answering some of the non-article posts so that the site is more generalized and less intimidating, but still stimulating and thought-provoking.
