I totally agree!!! Sarcasm? What do you mean? j/k.
I don't want valve to use time on moderating this list... But the post was more directed against those who wants this to be like all the other lists they are members of. Sometimes it is not as easy as they think it is. Keep in mind I never said valve owed us anything ;) But this IS the most open list I have ever been to. -Alex -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bud Ingram Sent: 25. mai 2005 13:11 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds] HOLY CRAP WTF?! Alexander, While I agree with your request to continue top-posting, I must say I do not agree with your reasoning behind it. Please note that sarcasm is being turned on now: It is a shame, nay an injustice that Valve dare offer this list as a free service! It is far beyond resonable they make this list available to you with commentary, responses to questions, notifications, let alone any presence from an employee such as Mr. Reynolds (et al.) without requiring that you pay some kind of fee! Damn them for not keeping posts "on-topic" and filtered for content, and enforcing bottom posting! Sarcasm off...
