I don't know ... I'm seeing all sorts of sides here, and justifications on all sides.
If an organiser wants info emailing to him, email it to him. Trying to trawl through various threads on the Message Board is a nightmare, you not only have to find the thread(s) that contains the info you want, you also have to take the time to satisfy yourself that you have found
all the threads and all the info posted on the Board. This last bit can be very time-consuming.
I don't always enjoy the style in which some MT members choose to post (to be honest, it sometimes makes me wince), but I have to say that Paul James's request regarding being emailed is a reasonable one, for the reason I've stated above.
On the other hand, if you feel that it is unreasonable to expect people to email their questions/suggestions/etc to the organisor, offer yourself up as his replacement and do things your way. But when you've done this, make sure you don't adopt the occasional supercilious tone at the same time
