I just do want to have some concrete knowledge of what do you want to have. We need some rules, however, in order to implement filtering systems, I need concrete wishes. > > The easist way to fix this is in communications follow the convention: > > Hi FirstName, > > Text of message > > Thanks/Cheers/Regards > MyFirstNameThatIsAppropriateoAddressMeAs > > This does require extra typing, and hence slightly more effort to > write in this form, but if you read the various threads it's far > easier to see who's saying what, and it's also far more personable. > > Believe me or not, but this possibility is already there. There is some kind of template message appearing whenever you want to write a post through the forum. So users don't even need to type something extra, it is already there. The template looks like: --- Hi, ... Thank you! --- Maybe you have seen the "..." in the posted messages in the last days ;) So, what should I do more? If a user isn't able to even follow that template, what should we then do??? I have no answer for this. cheers, art P.S. Please jsut give me concrete wishes, what you would like to have and I will try to implement them. ------------------ Read this topic online here: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?p=11464#11464 _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
