(Just spotted this quoted by Steven D'Aprano).
Another factor of course is that people are reading and interacting with
the list/newsgroup in many different ways, and so what appears as a
pile-on almost certainly isn't (as such). It's the common reaction of a
number of probably unconnected people with a similar mindset.
Obviously Leam's point is still valid: it looks like a wall of unwanted
advice. But I wanted to defend "The List" (or "The Newsgroup") which of
course is just a load of different people.
