Oh, and since you mentioned "computer skills", you also seem to lose sight of the FACT that not EVERYONE here at this list are PC experts as you and I, or Peter, Ben, Tom, et al. We types KNOW what to do. But what about the majority of the OTHER users, the newbies, all those that are NOT experts?? They are members too. -Clint
----- Original Message ----- No I was talking about *your* "people skills" (lack of diplomacy and confrontational attitude). 1. I send an email to the list, and after a day or two, I never see it posted. 2. I receive OTHER email from the list. 3. I CAN send said emails to myself with no problem, so it's nothing in the email that's blocked. 3. The posts DO NOT show up in the archives. The logical conclusion from those 4 facts, is that they are not going to the list. Obviously, I now know that is wrong, but the logic cannot be faulted, it's a sensible conclusion I deduced from those 4 facts, as anyone else would. We've been through this crap before. The consensus was that members WANT the vulnerability alerts posted. They do NOT have to subscribe to the alerts and have to sift through sometimes a hundred of the alerts each day to find alerts that pertain to Windows or members' commonly used software; or, have to search elsewhere for the information. It should go without saying, and sensible, that having the **APPROPRIATE** alerts sent to their inboxes via this list is FAR MORE convenient than having to subscribe to **another** list and delete ~100 unneeded alerts a day. It's called "helping". Like I've said before, no good deed goes unpunished. So I'm not posting them anymore simply because I'm sick of your b!tching. Happy now? So you're on your own now members. Many have no problem with that, but, some WILL. Subscribe, and read through dozens and dozens and dozens of these daily alerts to find the ones for M$ products, FireFox, etc., and *YOU* figure it out if you need them or not. -Clint Clint Hamilton, Owner http://www.OrpheusComputing.com/ http://www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com http://Computer-Hardware-Sales-Consumer-Electronics-Sales.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hugh Vandervoort" We're talking about computer skills, Clint, not people skills. I'm sure you realize that you do this time and time again. I'm very surprised you haven't figured out the reason for these multiple and repetitive posts, not to mention the complaints about posting attempts that accompany them. As for copying and pasting information that's readily available elsewhere, I don't see the value. Anyone who wants this info can get on the Secunia mailing list. http://secunia.com/secunia_security_advisories/ Clint - OrpheusComputing.com & ComputersCustomBuilt.com wrote: > You really need to work on your "people skills". > > A simple, personal, "Clint, they're showing up" would have > sufficed. > > Just because you find something "unnecessary" doesn't mean > ALL > OTHERS will.
