Frankly, I am so discouraged by all the (negative IMHO) changes that I am at a loss for words...... That's a rarity for me. I can only add that I am on board 100% with Dennis.

The daily digest would be an almost acceptable compromise, but - on only the second day of implementation - I have yet to recieve mine.

To echo what Dennins said above, the ebot system worked perfectly for me. I have a crushingly busy schedule, and frankly Rendo is a big part of my relaxation - or at least it was before all these changes. Having to repeatedly check the notifications is a real pain. Then, when I come back to it, half the notifications are gone, so I have to click the "Older Items" button to see them again. It's a real pain in the ### as far as I'm concerned.

I don't know if it matters at all to your administration, but members are beginning to leave in considerable numbers. I have many friends on Rendo that have already called it quits - not neccesarily just because of this recent change, but because Admin seems to be both blind and deaf when it comes to how the community feels. And that's a community that spends a pretty good chunk of change in your marketplace, I might add.

I do not plan on leaving; at least not right now. I am hoping that your Admin will take a good long look at the feedback from your  community (and I say YOUR community in all sincerity), and act upon it - act like your community matters to you.
