[Email] Reminder to those asking to be "removed off this list"

[Sheila Prince]

     I completely searched the home page, looking for the option to opt
out, but I did not find one.So if I'm right, you're opting out instructions
is saying that I'll to have to wait, until the first of the month, to
receive an email from you, in order to opt out?

     I'm asking so I'm clear on what I need to do, when this opportunity
comes my way. Because it was my goal to opt out TODAY. Well, I'm so glad
that there are only 3 days left of this month.

      I mean no disrespect, but why? Why not have a website equipped to
allow anyone to opt out when they choose? Especially since we are now being
told that we are responsible for managing our own subscriptions? Here I am
trying to do just that, but the gatekeeper has the gate locked.

     I've unsubscribed from countless unwanted emails, who ALWAYS give you
an opt out link at the bottom of EVERY email they send to you. Having to
wait, is unheard of.

     There's some updating that needs to be done on that website. I'm just
saying.

    Don't get me wrong. This community concept is great, and I appreciate
the work that the members,who manages this,do.The email list is a great
tool for* immediate* communication, because everyone may not always get to
the website in time.

      But unfortunately, for me, my priorities trump trying to keep up
with, and/or delete, all of that information coming from waterfordhomes.org
,keeping my inbox inundated with information that could simply be put on
the website. Plus, a lot of the information we receive from you, I find
nearly the same info in those free,weekly community newspapers they throw
upon everyone's driveway, in the Waterford Homes community.

     Since the community website already contains links to events,
newsletters, meeting minutes, etc. maybe those links could fill the empty
pages with ALL OF THE NEWS we get in the emails.

      The website has the potential to be a wonderful resource of
information to find out what is going on in our community. I just have one
suggestion, there are a lot of free website builders out there, offering
free templates & layouts that are very user friendly. They're so
resourceful, and huge time savers. Maybe you can check it out. I look
forward to seeing what you could do with that.

       Thank you all, for standing up for our community. The effort you put
into even obtaining so much information, makes you the unsung heros of
Waterford Homes. In the meantime, I'll be waiting for this month to end.
