		<description>Reid,

It has been a while.  Starting a forum for our customers is something we&#039;ve thought about a few times.  And we&#039;ve got a pretty big customer base so I&#039;m sure it could be a good resource for our customers.

There are a couple of things that have held us back.

1. Time.  :)  We&#039;re hard at work with new features and improving the software.  We&#039;re always updating the knowledge-base, but haven&#039;t got to this yet.

2. We&#039;re not sure it will be heavily used.  There&#039;s nothing worse than going to a forum and there is no posts or no activity.   It just looks bad.  I realize there is a chicken and the egg problem there... but we&#039;re keen to alway present well to potential customers.  But as the quote goes &quot;if you build it they will come&quot; ... so we might have to give it a try one day.


In the end it achieves a similar result as our support email address.  Except that customers can help each other.   In reality, we&#039;ll have to moderate the responses and add our 2c when incorrect posts are made.

Thanks for giving us a prod ... we&#039;ll give it some more thought.</description>

		<description>Hi Matt,

Its been a while since you posted this one. Just curious if you&#039;ve given any more thought on the possibility of a Forum or Discussion Board for PaperCut users. 

Thanks,
Reid</description>
