I never said they were under any obligations or any agreements or anything. Like I said, I was curious and I understand your points, I'm just not getting mine across to you correctly which is my bad. And I took what you said wrong to and for that I apologize, thought you were attacking me. And if you have noticed I haven't been running off topic and such as much anymore because I took a break and got rid of windows and now I'm not so grumpy. Obviously this person has some knowledge of web dev and it would be good for the community if he did step in an voice his thoughts and opinions on what we are here for (cfm). Just seemed kinda odd to me that I had like 700 posts from him on cf comm and none on cf talk, so i asked, no big deal. But according to his responce he doesn't feel like he has anything to offer which is crap, everyone here has something to offer.
Don't you think it's strange to see all those posts with the poster never mentioning cfm in any of them on a cfm based list? I was just thinking that if the poster just wanted to discuss politics a different list might be better. ---------------------------------------- From: Charlie Griefer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, April 10, 2005 12:38 AM To: CF-Community <[email protected]> Subject: Re: America's Insurgents .....but then we've come full circle, haven't we? Nobody on cf-community is under any obligation to "help or [try to] help out" and, in fact, may very well be just "some random person who happened to find the list." So, as I stated in my original response to your original post (which again, yes I did actually read)...if deleting posts by somebody who you don't see actively "helping" others gets your panties in a bunch...then, as I originally suggested, maybe you're on the wrong list. And yes, many people on cf-talk are hesitant to subscribe to cf-community for that very reason. A huge number of off-topic posts, or specifically, non-cf related posts. I haven't seen any 'membership requirements' that suggest posting to cf-community is a privelege restricted to coldfusion developers or members of cf-talk. A majority of cf-community members are actually cf-talk (and/or other HoF lists). But I've seen a few names that are unique to community (or that I just don't recall ever seeing on cf-talk). So you may very well end up hitting 'delete' a number of times...and you may end up doing so for messages posted by folk that have never stepped foot onto cf-talk. If that's an issue for you...I say again (and use your phrase from your original post), maybe you're on the wrong list. It seemed (and still does) that you were/are working under a misconception. I tried to clear that up. Not quite sure how that made ma a "smart ass"...but I think that I've now put forth enough effort and will bow out of the thread and allow you and the gang to continue your political non-cf related conversation.
