Hey Charles,
I didn't say that the example is among the messages. I ment that it
happened during the discussion. I mean, we are discussing about it, and
someone pops out a message that is exactly in the way we don't want. The
subject is not the same.
Best regards,

What example of a short message do you see in this thread? I went over
the whole thing, which isn't very long, and found none.

Hi to all,
Well, we can talk about this for days. The people who do this either
don't read these messages or don't want to understand it. I say it
because in the middle of the discussion we have an example of the thing.
So, I think the discussion is useless, and the fact is that I never
respond to those kind of messages that are without respect, punctuation,
etc, and that I am not the only one who doesn't want to respond to that.
Best regards!

From the other side of the coin: You have hundreds of Emails to go
through on a daily basis. You know the answer to someone's query, short
and sweet. Your answer will be informative, and it is what they are
looking for. Quickly and concisely, you send a reply. There is not
time, nor is there the need, to send a lengthy reply. If someone is
asking if a particular game is playable using JAWS, you don't have to go
into how to play it. At times, a simple "Yes, this game is playable
using JAWS. Give it a try and happy gaming." is all that is necessary.
One important thing to note, though: Include some indication as to who
you are replying to, and what you are talking about. The above example
of a reply would be totally pointless if you did not include the message
you replied to, or if you didn't include, at least, the name of the
game.

Hello everyone,
I have seen this going through the list, but I wanted to say it again,
since I am kind of getting annoyed at this. As Thomas Ward stated,
E-Mails are not Short messaging systems. E-Mail is just like writing a
letter to somebody over the internet. Now, I gotta ask you:
If you write a letter to, for example, your mom, would you just write
one
line? With No Greetings, no Hi, and no bottom line, like Regards, Wish
you well, or whatever?
This is something to be considered about. Yes, I know, I have been
doing
this too. But I have realized that it is not the way to go. This
mailing
list is to speak about games, yes, but it's not a group chat where
people
write their answers in 160 Chars or less. I always try to explain
whenever I am talking about something over 160 Characters, and a Hi and
a
Good bye. If I want to ask something, for example if I am having
trouble
with a game, if someone could help me, if it is an outside-game error,
I
write exactly what I have, installed, and how I did to run it, not
just:
"Hey, it doesn't work, how can I fix it?", since, that sounds kind
of...
Not plesent, I guess. Also, if someone asks something, like What does
BGT
stand for, for example, I don't just write in one line:
Blast bay game toolkit.
I would probably add some more information. Well, that's been it for
me.
Oh, yeah, and if you really want a gamers chat, why not make one at
groupsim? We already have one, and we are happy if you join.
Oriol is

Audiogames planet.
There you could go and ask short questions, and give short answers, but
please, not through E-Mail, since I bet no body is writing a simple
letter saying:
How are you doing?
And sends it.
Kevin
