I could chime in quite abit also. I was a 4 term president of the Solano 
PC Users Group when it died. I also see some of the same trends in online 
communities.

There is a long term correlation (believe me, there have been studies) 
between support groups and good documentation. Its unfortunate that one of 
the prime purposes of a support group is to provide good documentation 
which causes its own demise.

Its hard to find things for a user group that cant be gotten easier 
online. Specific walk-thru help comes to mind.
