Re: [Audyssey] This is Ridiculous
Hi Shadow Dragon, As I pointed out a moment ago in my previous email I do not in fact reply to every single email sent to this list. It may seam that way to you, but that is simply not true. Though, as has been stated I will attempt to cut down the number of posts I send. Second, The Sapi voice thread you mentioned was apart of important marketing research from USA Games. I will not apologise for using this list or any other accessible gaming list to gather information that will assist me in improving my products and or services. Third, as for the programming topics you mentioned that has already been delt with. If you have been following your emails as closely as you think you would have seen I announced twice to this list a new forum specifically designed for discussing game programming, and to take it off this list. Finally, as for mine or anyone elses email being spam it is not true. Spam is by definition an unwanted advertisement sent to you at random. This is a public mailing list which you signed up for, and no messages on this list are spam. You can join or leave this list at any time you choose.

Re: [Audyssey] This is Ridiculous
Ok, so maybe my original post was a little harsh. *shrug* All I'm saying is, is it really necessary to reply to every single message on the list? I read audyssey to see when new games and the like come out, not to discuss programming and why people can't use self-voicing programs or what people think the best sapi voice is and the like.

Re: [Audyssey] This is Ridiculous
To me, what matters is not how many messages someone sends, but the content of those messages. If someone responds with good info to a post, fine. If someone goes through their Emails once every few days or so, answering reasonably to 50 or 60 of the ones in their inbox, fine. I get loads of Emails every day, and there are some that I don't read because I already know, from past experience, that the Emails from some people are, at best, difficult to decipher because of the terrible errors in spelling, grammar, and typing. Others have, for the most part, good info, and some of these are from game developers dealing with their games. Getting good info passed to other list members is what the list is about, so the number of posts is not one of my main concerns. --- If you don't stand behind our troops, please, feel free ... to stand in front of them! - Original Message - From: "Tj" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Tuesday, January 29, 2008 2:04 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] This is Ridiculous >I believe he's talking more about Valiant\on laptop who posted, let me >count, 27 times in a matter of exactly, 38 minutes.

Re: [Audyssey] This is Ridiculous
Hi. make sure you don't get Tyler confused with me, he uses something that includes my name for vt, I'm not Tyler, so don't get us mixed up. but here's some advice, because 1. I like all the audyssey traffic 2. audyssey is my favorite list, and I don't want it to change 3. I don't intend to slow down my posting 4. I don't have a problem with all these messages, maybe you won't either after this. 5. It'll be easier to count how many messages I send if you follow these steppes, you won't have to sift through spam as you count. 6. email client message rules just rock, oh, and one problem consists of whether you're using outlook express or windows mail but S E P message rules: I want to offer some advice for this here list. You can create a message rule in outlook express or windows mail, these instructions match almost exactly for outlook and for windows live mail. A message rule can sort out messages you want to have separated, and put them somewhere else, this way you can mess with those messages at your leisure and get to your important stuff when you want. Also, you can apply these techniques to delete messages all together from me if you want. 1. Press alt+t This puts you in the tools menu 2. Up arrow several times looking for something labeled something similar to message rules and hit enter on it. This is commonly a sub menu, so select mail in the sub menu of message rules and hit enter on that too 3. tab around until you find a button that will allow you to create a new rule, in windows mail this is new... button. hit enter on it 4. You're put in a list view of checkable items. arrow to where the to line contains specific people and hit space to check it. If your screen reader isn't reading state checked or unchecked properly hit space on it anyway, it likely wasn't checked by default. Now press tab to move into the actions to take list view, and arrow to move it to the specified folder, and hit space to check it. Hit tab again, to land in step 3, which is an interesting read only edit field. 5. Hit your arrow keys until you find where the to line contains specific words and hit space on it. If that didn't work, mine dinged at me, hit enter on it, that ought to do the trick. This puts you in an edit field that's labeled something like "type specific words or a phrase, then click add". Type Gamers@audyssey.org without the quotes into this field, tab to add and hit space, now tab to ok button and hit space one more time. You end up back in that nifty little read only edit field, 6. arrow in it again till you find "move it to the specified folder". Hit enter there. You wind up in a folder tree view, move round till you're sitting on "inbox", press tab until you land on "new folder button", hit space on that. 7. type something like "Audyssey", hit enter 8. arrow to newly created "audyssey", hit enter. 9. Verify you've got something like this quoting: Apply this rule after the message arrives Where the To line contains 'gamers@audyssey.org' Move it to the audyssey folder unquote. 10. Now, tab once, this is the name of your new message rule, type something like "filter audyssey" and hit tab. 11. You wind up on the ok button, hit space there. 12. You're in a dialogue that has a list of message rules, and buttons with which you can do things to those rules. Shift+tab or tab till you find the list of rules, arrow to Filter Audyssey. Now tab to apply now... button and hit space. Press tab to land on select all button, and hit space there, now shift+tab repeatedly till you end up on apply now button and hit space on it. 13. you get a pause as folders are moved about, then you get an ok button confirming you've finished applying the rule. Hit space on that ok button, then tab to the close button and hit space on it. 14. Finally, tab to the ok button and hit space on that too. 15. Back in list of messages, hit shift+tab, you'll probably get "inbox", down arrow once, after making sure inbox is expanded, you'll probably find Audyssey somewhere abouts, when you do find it, tab back into the message list, and your audyssey messages should all be in there. 16. Wait, there's no 16. Advice, there's a podcast about message rules, it's way down the page on http://blindcooltech.com, it might be helpful. - Original Message - From: "Tj" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Tuesday, January 29, 2008 4:31 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] This is Ridiculous > For today, we're at ward 10.

Re: [Audyssey] This is Ridiculous
haha, I know for a fact he just sent 23 more messages. And btw he's on dialup, so I can't exactly blame him. And btw, he can do a lot of things with that there dialup that you wouldn't exactly think of. He's hosting an ftp, mud, and website with it, but he just told me he had a lot of free time today, and so did I, but I guess he was interested in a lot more subjects than I was, lol. thanks Tyler --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.

I believe he's talking more about Valiant\on laptop who posted, let me count, 27 times in a matter of exactly, 38 minutes. So I had on average at least 2 messages a minute from him.

Just, i understand getting involved in a descussion but you don't need to reply to everyone directly do you? I can't even keep up, nor want to,m with people that post 29 times a day, in the last hour and 10 minutes at the longest, and try to follow conversation. Just makes for a tedious task. You've got to write all your emails at the end of the day, and still worry about people deleting it for spam. Anyhow, that's my 2 sents too. Ooo.
