Re: [Audyssey] Something I've Learned
Hi Ken, ATT Crystal reads my Email to me in a continuous manner without me even touching my keyboard. That is one Email after another until it reads them all. So I read every Email in my Email box. Like while I'm eating breakfast, drinking coffee or whatever. I can skip a message if I wish too, but normally do not. So I read every single Audyssey message. I just do not respond to every single one. BFN Jim I said no to drugs, but they just wouldn't listen. j...@kitchensinc.net http://www.kitchensinc.net (440) 286-6920 Chardon Ohio USA --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Something I've Learned
Actually Ken, i myself tend to follow a much different rule. I read the first post of any given topic, ie, when it's subject is not re something, and judge whether or not I will participate in that discussion. If I decide I have nothing to add, or if it is a topic which isn't related to me, then! is when I start deleting posts in that topic unread. That's also why imho it's so important for subject lines to make sense. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Something I've Learned
I check out the subject line and if it sounds like I would be interested I would get involved in the discussion. But that kind of game didnt sound like something I would like. most of the time I don't read all the chit chat about games that might be. I might read some messages about a game that is out to figure if I might want to try it or not. I don't have that much time for games so most of the time it might be months before I actually get around to trying a new game out then all the discussion is over.

Re: [Audyssey] Something I've Learned
I get so many Emails, I do the exact same thing. Read Emails based on their subject line, because that's what it's there for. If I'm not interested in the subject shown by the subject line, it gets deleted. There are also Emails from certain people that I automatically delete for various personal reasons, which is another matter that I won't go into. --- Shepherds are the best beasts! - Original Message - From: dark d...@xgam.org To: Ken the Crazy kenwdow...@neo.rr.com; Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2011 4:43 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Something I've Learned Actually Ken, i myself tend to follow a much different rule.
