As a not quite recent member who figured out the cross referencing and FUTs.
(the latter of which I only fully understood last week...) I have this to
add...
It's not a process I'd describe as very simple. It is once you figure it
out, sure, but til then... no way. I figured out the corss posting by
looking at how others did it and figured it out. Before that I simply
limited myself to one group, wondering how ~they~ did it! I certainly
remember my first cross posting, "gad I hope this
works......<praying>......looks goood......hey, It worked!" Not like I knew
what I was doing exactly.
Why not a button or link on the posting page that says "how to post to
multible groups" or something akin to that? ("Common posting practices" or
"Advanced posting techniques" maybe?) It'd be right there when posting a
message, those unfamiliar with how those features work would have access to
the information in a relevant location, and somthing unoffensive like a
button won't annoy the savy user yet be obvious for the novice.
My 2 cents cause I feel like I've been on both sides of this.
