Trying to get a better understanding of the place, and it has come to my attention that very few of the posters actually claim to be part of the Lazlo Society itself. It sort of bothers me, especially here in the Agency Voice section.

So my question to the Agency is, why is there so little input from the agency recently?

I am the point of contact in regards to the Society.
How can I be of assistance.

Sorry for the delay in replying. I was not near a PC for most of the weekend.

My question was regarding this section of the board. It seems that a large number of the responses have been by what I can best tell are non-agency members, and part of the postings that are not really questions to the society at all. I was starting to think that the agency had abandoned us, and was curious if anyone there was still monitoring and maintaining the board.

Speakin as a reisted user, I may not be a card carryng Lazlo Society suit, but Im entitled my opinion, just like alot of the folks here.

But maybe things aren 't run right, lets check the facts;

388 Registered Users; 270,941 Visitors; and 5616 posts by users.

I believe the masses have spoken.

Happy Huntin' *-)

I am not saying that we as members of the board are not entitled to our say. Here in this part of the board we are supposed to be able to ask the experts at Lazlo questions, see agency notices, and advisories. While I believe that most of the people on here know what they are talking about, there really is no way for the average user to tell the difference of someone with knowledge and a kid or nut job pulling answers from their rear end. Lazlo experts are supposed to be the best out there, so what happens when they go mostly silent?

I am also just noting that the sponsoring agency seems to be spending little time on the boards. The average board online tends to have moderators that ensure that posts go into the right place. Outside of a bumping of old messages, there has been little activity or management from them. This concerns me because it potentially points to either problems with the board or with the organization over it.

The agency has been having a lot of problems, lately. We've/they've thrived on donations from members, and from the sponsorship of an outside company, whose link is actually at the bottom of each page. It's easy to miss, but that company has been having lots of financial problems, of late, and the Society's admin are doing what they can to help them. It hasn't been easy, and with luck, they'll pull through, but if our sponsors go under, it could spell disaster for the society.

Information is available at our sponsor's site, in their forums.

Understood, I have done what I can regarding that situation. I owe a lot to the sponsoring organization myself.

It is just as a fairly inexperienced operative, it is like having my safety net removed while I am in the middle of a trapeze act.
