Im sure people are too glad to help in whatever way they can and do that without expressed pressure from a forum.

It's not a case of people being pressured into anything. I'm sure that was never the original intention. People don't have to do things in the name of AccyWeb, it was simply that at one time a member suggested that because we are such a varied group of people with a variety of skills and abilities then perhaps as a group we might be of benefit to someone else even if all some of us could do would be brew up whilst the others did their more skilled thing.

A bunch of people together like that, working together in harmony can acheive a lot more than they possibly could individually. For instance, just making cups of tea with nobody to drink them would be pointless but making them for people who were working on something would be appreciated. Also the ones doing the other jobs could then get on with it and would probably be thankful for the cup of tea or whatever. some of us might be skilled and some of us might be better as labourers.

But as KIPAX says, even the simplest of things need some sort of organisation to get them off the ground in the first place.

Take this carnival idea. OK, so we can all post to volunteer what we've got to offer - but who are we offering it to?
