          I guess we would have to be a bit more organized here and explain where we’re coming from. The JGF (Jazz Guitar Forum) thread reached over 300 posts in roughly 2 months. I’m not sure how this WordPress forum plugin will handle the onslaught of posts in the long run. It looks pretty basic and does not seem to have an advanced editor. My concern is that it might eventually affect the performance of the site itself. On the other hand, if it grows big enough Richie may consider upgrading to a dedicated forum site and software.

          Anyway, if we are to create a study/discussion group thread/s we should probably do it by module. Each of us is at a different point in the course and works at a different pace. So if we create separate threads for each module, one would join the thread that corresponds to the module they’re working on and perhaps help out with the previous modules. Any topics already discussed can be linked to in a particular thread.

          Another thing, once our memberships expire we won’t be able to participate. A dedicated forum site with no expiration date would be welcome. Just some thoughts to consider I suppose.

          NB I would prefer the username to be displayed. I hope Richie can fix that.

                How did you do it? I don’t know why I’m appearing as “Mr”, when I never wrote that.

                  Click the display name under your Gravatar and you’ll be taken to the page with extended menu underneath the Gravatar. Select Edit and change your Display Name option. Then scroll down, click on Update Profile and you’re done.

                    Just saying hello. I purchased a membership, but have been slow to start due to tying up the semester of a workshop. Thx for starting the thread.

                              No problem, I had to start that thread on the other forum to let everyone know who is struggling with learning Jazz improv….Its already changing my playing and hopefully in a year or 2 I’ll sound like a jazz guitarist:)
