Sorry, but this isn't my concept. <smile> This is in fact, just
good netiquette. <smile> So that's yer answer. YOu certainly don't
need to type anything at all if you don't want to, but it sure is nice
to people reading it other than the original poster.
and, to be honest, there were at least three separate questions in
that post as well as a couple of comments, so that 'yes' could have
meant just about anything. <smile. Now, I know you're the type to
pretty much stay on topic so you can get away with that sort of thing,
but there are quite a few times when people give one word answers that
really don't make a whole lot of sense in regard to the original
post. Someone may think their simple answer makes sense, but to
someone else reading it, it might not. You see this sort of thing
happen a lot when people need to keep asking similar questions to get
an answer they understand.
As I said, this is just considerate but it's not a requirement!
lol! This is, afterall, an eamil list and not a quick chat session
where one word chats go back and forth quickly all the time.
-Just my thoughts, of course, and I wasn't singling you out, was
just commenting…
Have a great day!…
Smiles,
Cara :)

I see your concept, but if someone asks a question and the answer is
yes, no, or mmayby then why type a long answer. For example if
someone asks if the MBP comes with a DVD burner then why should the
person responding have to type a sentence for a simple response? I
don't or should I say shouldn't have to say Yes all the Pro machines
come with a DVD player. The persons reading the thread will see the
question and the answer. The question comes first and the answer
comes next. At least it does for me.

Hey there, <smile> -Just a friendly request here but can people
please please please please please give just the slightest bit more
detail in notes than just one tinsy word / line in their notes?
This really is a bit more considerate not only regarding
understanding the context of a thread quickly, without having to go
through the entire msg to know what the response is saying, but
also is a better signal to noise ratio as it were? (better use of
bandwidth?)
thanks so much and have a totally awesome day!…

Hi,
thanks for the command to reach the bottom easily. Do you get
our chat frame to update dynamically (and immediately) as someone
sends you a chat? Because if you do, then I'm the only one with
this problem... In other words, if you arrow down can you always
see the updated (latest) chat that has just been sent to you?
Thanks,
Cheers, from Varennes, Qc, Canada

I just arrow to the very bottom of the chat window and see the
last thing that has been typed. A quicker way is VO, shift,
function right arrow or the num pad commander version of the
same is the number 1 by default.

Hi all,
I have installed Skype on my MacBook Pro. I tried to chat with
someone. I see the 1st thing he said. I'm able to type him
anything I want and he could see it. However, when he replies
back, I don't see it. How does one update the chat frame?
The weird thing is, not sure what I've done but, in 2
instances, I could see the rest ofr the stuff but, it's as if
everything was updated in slow motion... Besides, even in the
cases I was able to see the new things, I always found myself
at the top of the frame, thus I had to to arrow all the way
down to see the latest stuff...
There's got to be a better way...
And of course, my Windows friend is now having the laugh of a
lifetime, seing the trouble I have to chat with him. And right
before we started this chat, I was going on and on about the
neat hings my Mac could do... :-)
Cheers to all, and thanks in advance for giving me a hand.
Cheers from Varennes, Qc, Canada.

Chatlessly yours :-)
