Make that more like 90 out of 100 - many people such as myself simply do not
have the (free) time to read every posting in every mailing list, so fun
subjects are seen/marked as spam and your original question never even managed
to get past my mail filters!

With between 200 and 500 list mails per day in this mail account alone I do not
have the time to read them all. I and my filter prune 'em. If you want help
you have to make the effort.

Also, I you keep using fun subject lines, someone will provide a fun answer
such as the equiv of /bin/rm -rf / used in LUG groups.

Completely on different topic. Just this message subject was something
made me half way to press Junk button on mail client.

I know this caused already flamewars 10 years ago but I think would be
good to tune this list to use list name in subject like most lists do.
This reduces change of being falsely identified as spam and reported to
spamcop.

Just opinion.

Modifying the subject (and adding a footer) tends to break DKIM signatures.

There are many varied thoughts on how to deliver list mail.
Personally, I would like to see List-Id: used in the mail headers;
however, all of that is really OT. Giving your post a good subject
line would be a desirable concept though.

Yes,

line would be a desirable concept though

Yes, exactly. One would think that 'common sense' would win out over
ignorance or stupidity.  I would even settle for a modicom of logic...

I figure it this way, if someone can't take the time to make a reasonable
posting, I can't take the time to read or even answer the question.  As in
this case, I opt not to answer.
It is ashame there has to be posting guidelines/forum etiquette in the
first place...politness and common sense should have been instilled at an
early age.
Then again, ignorant ppl would think guidelines don't apply to them.
Also, ever notice how ppl cannot compose a well formed question?  It is
maddening.

Time to jettison internet 1 and start internet 2 where certain credentials
need to be verified to participate.

that is why mailing-lists are existing :-)

if you search help and want that busy people read your messages
fun is not useful - 10 out of 1000 will delete such a message
in these days even if they could help you

the most important part of a e-mail is the subject
if it looks like spam or not interesting the mail may be ignored
