it's not like the thread wasn't easily readable, because every reply was at the top of every post. I appologize for not editing out previous replies, but at the time, frankly i didn't care. You'll notice that i usually do remove excess crap from the bottom, yesterday was an exception; and obviously i wasn't the only one who didn't care.
if you choose to ignore it because theres extra crap at the bottom, thats your own choice; but it didn't make it any harder to read since, as i said, everyone's replies were at the very top. you only had to read the top. Sure, you got a little extra traffic, but, it's unlikely unless you use hotmail it would have posed an actual problem. (using hotmail would be a problem in itself though)

But I will. I will always complain. Whenever someone talks with me and repeats anything I said I will complain. I will complain if someone talks to me and puts a small statement into a huge constellation of words. And nothing else is this bad habit of fullquoting.
"But this is my style!" Maybe. But take this as a warning: I ignored such threads in the past, and I will ignore them in the future, because if I cannot get the point of discussion in a few seconds and have to waste a larger amount of time on reading what the current state of the thread is, I am uneager to do this. Thus I will not reply, even if i might know something important. My knowlegde may be inconsiderable, but I think I'm not the only one.
Don't take this as an offence. It is just a warning. This whole list is based on voluntary help. So please take a few seconds to format your message so that is easy readable. I'm not angry or something if you don't, I simply won't read such mails.
