If other forums offered NNTP access I'd probably particpate more but I find
web based discussion boards extremely inefficient plus you can't read them
offline (like you can with a newsreader).  I have to really run out of
things to do before I head into any the LEGO web based discussion boards • but
I doubt my habits and preferences are typical.

You may not be typical, but you are certainly not alone. I'm another NNTP
holdout. And let's not forget just *how much* the traffic drops on LUGNET
when for some reason NNTP is down.
