If you want to reach out please send e-mails to personal mail ids.

No one denies that they are bad what we say is that they have no place on
a FOSS mailing list.
If Barack Obama used this mailing list to canvas for votes it would
still be considered as spam .

A mailing list has certain rules to follow and if you do not follow
those rules you can be kicked out.
It can not be termed as groupism.
On the other hand sending mails to a mailing list instead of sending it
to each individuals email id seperately is a sign of laziness of the
greatest order and should be condemned.

This has been discussed earlier and your chances of making some one
understand and replying to your email are much lower if the readers can not
understand your writing.
Not using the spell check feature is another sign of laziness and lazy
people are less likely to suceed in finding answers to thier questions than
people who go the extra mile.

What does group of males or making fun of children have to do with the
point you are trying to make.
you think that all newbies are children who should be spoon fed like in a
school?

Do you now realize how disgusting it is when you question ILUG-D's
chances of succeeding just because of the mails on its mailing list.
