Team, please don't take this the wrong way: I feel a bit like old aunt Polly asking people to be polite and to behave, but this is turning into a problem (at least to me).
I would like to draw your attention on the quoting issue: I'm really having a hard time in following the ML traffic given that when a discussion grows beyond the three replies it suddenly becomes a jungle of (mainly mis)quoted stuff. I know that editing messages is a boring task and it's way faster to just jump to the place where you want to place a reply, hit Enter and start writing, but please keep in mind that your saved 2 minutes turn out into a loss of time and concentration of every list reader (try to sum up the time spent by every reader, probably the total amount of waste of brain cycles would be impressive: come on, we have better things to do :)). I challenge any of you to catch up after a few days away from the ML, get a message from a populated thread, glance at it and understand what is it about and where does the discussion take place: I spend most of the time looking around a ton of quoted text (which many times includes taglines, signatures and everything) to discover that the whole mail turns into a "+1" hidden around. Is it only me getting old and picky? :) Or should we pay a bit more attention to this issue? Thanks for bearing with me so far, -- Gianugo "old aunt" Rabellino --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
