I have noted considerable fall-off in all the msnews NGs. I think people
have already started migrating to Answers, as there seems to be a steady increase in questions posted there. -- Suzanne S.

The modest increase in traffic on the Answers forum and the disappearance of
traffic from here suggests that the link has been severed, but that the hapless user has not yet found his way to the new forum. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...

While there does seem to be quite a reduction in activity at
http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...&lang=en&cr=US, it appears that propagation between here and there is not working. -- Hope this helps.

But they probably will find the forums after June 1, whether they want to or
not. :-) -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP (Message posted via NNTP) "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

If only they could find the newsgroups, we might not simply be talking to
ourselves .....

It seems unlikely that Microsoft will restore the link for the remaining few
days - though you never can tell - so a few users are destined to be lost in limbo land. Few will know they can come here to the newsgroups directly. Messages on the old forum are still appearing, but they are neither being redirected here, nor to the answers forum, nor being answered - though I did pop over briefly to have a look, just to remind myself how bad it was to use that forum. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote in message ...

Since this is the only thread I have encountered this morning in the entire
microsoft.public.word hierarchy, I suspect you must be right. -- Suzanne S.

Ok, I just looked at the "social answers" page linked in another
thread. It's horrible -- taking up the whole screen with pointless graphics decoration, allowing very few topics to be visible at once, requiring far more clicking and scrolling than google groups -- what (if anything) were they thinking?????
