That's nice, but there are already 2 other general APO Yahoo Groups: AlphaPhiOmega, and AlphaPhiOmega2. Do we really need a third?

Umm, it's totally up to you wether or not you choose to join. I'm well aware of the other forums, as well as a few you might be slipping on. Not to be negative or anything, but was your comment really necessary?

Yes.

I don't feel we need "Yet Another General APO Forum". We have APO-L, which is the official (AFAIK) APO Mailing list. We already have 2 general APO groups on Yahoo! Groups. Having multiple general listserv/forums out there, it makes it hard to use these as a means of 'getting the word out' when people join only one of several. This forces others to then forward information to the many other general forums, along with the regional/sectional/chapter lists out there. This also means that for those of us on more then one list we have to see stuff multiple times.

In fact, I'd rather see the 2 already existing APO Y!Gs merge. And would really rather see them be eliminated and people join APO-L. I have no issue with lists formed for limited groups (national committees, regions, sections, chapters, AA, special topics, etc). But having multiple email forums just fragments our Brotherhood. And if there are more out there then I've mentioned (or am aware of), this just further proves my point. I've seen this in another org I'm part of when a semi-official listserv got shut down and replaced by 2 separate lists. Now the community is fragmented because of that. Many are on both lists, others on only one.
