Hi,
actually I'm not an active member this forum because I'm not English, but I use the Wiki, sometimes google brings me here and I also got a newsletter yesterday.
For those who don't receive the newsletter, here is it:
As you can see, the Mail consists mainly of useless stuff nobody would call "News". For some reason, I don't have older Newsletters (is this the first one?) so I cant compare it to others.
I totally understand the points about advertising, premium and the podcast, but why do the speedsolving.com Administration ask me to read the rules or not to feed the troll? That's something I really never ever have read before in an E-Mail
I believe that you'll understand my problem so I don't have to explain further, maybe it upsets you, too.
So my suggestion is:
Put more effort in the newsletter or throw it away. Maybe summarize records of the month or write something about new cubes like lingyun, x-cube or whatever.
What do you think?
