cisco-nsp is for cisco operators in network service provider environments. Everyone on the mailing list is ok about occasional basic questions and people are nearly always extremely polite and helpful towards the people who ask them. MK consistently and regularly uses the list as a first-line support desk for extremely basic questions, most of which could be answered by spending a couple of minutes on google, and some of which are completely unrelated to cisco kit. It's also clear that many of the questions relate to synthetic lab setups, student configuration or are otherwise unrelated to NSP service environments. This is abusive and disrespectful towards the good will of the people on the mailing list and frankly it's a waste of their time. It has politely suggested to MK on many occasions that she/he stop doing this, as well as other things like email formatting which destroys fixed-width quotations, which makes it really troublesome to figure out what's going on. These polite requests have either been ignored or in the case of simply and easily fixing the quotation problem, been replied to with "no". I agree it would be better to ignore the emails, but people have become pissed off to the point that they are now being rude. Jared, as the list owner, could you consider applying a cluebat please?
