Hi Terry
I do not think it was "attacked". Age was mentioned since it seems you
do not know the history, and wisdom was challenged, since you seem to
assume that all you know (your way of quoting) is the "right" way,
ignoring the history, and assuming that Microsoft has any authority to
define this.

Having that said, I find it sad that such formal arguments are the
reason for posting to this list or not. With a little bit of extra
effort to accept both worlds, it should be possible to co-exist. The
contents should matter. And it cannot be denied that the "business
world" is adhering to their god (Microsoft). Bad, and we should try
better in a world which is not under their influnce, but we should know
that the other world exists, and tolerate.

Even Internet RFCs follow the robustness principle: "be conservative in
what you do, be liberal in what you accept from others".

(And, by the way, Patrick's excessive full quotes on top with one
sentence on the bottom are also not helpful, and not the idea of
"proper" quoting).

Michael

But beside perception, there's something called "facts". And, sorry to

TOFU quoting was invented by Microsoft, way too late, when other

Actually, with a little bit of experience in IT, all alarms should fire

Well, this is a question of perception. I, German, working for an Indian
company, am learning that every day, I'm probably perceived as (one of)
the most rude guy in the account. But I try to improve (*).

But beside perception, there's something called "facts". And, sorry to

m$ was late to the email game and went their own way rather than follow
established ways.  that you follow m$ *only* shows your age, not your
wisdom.

I have not "chased" you anywhere.  You make your own decisions and you do
you best to make that known.  hope you the best in your future endeavours.

Re: [darktable-user] darktable-users list, fewer postings?

2023-04-23 Thread Terry Pinfold
Yes, incorrectly posting to the top or the bottom of the list is a pretty
unforgivable sin. I just post the way Microsoft has designed it and that is
how everyone posts at my University. But for some reason you have set a
standard that is different from mainstream. So you have chased me away. You
achieved what you wanted. I must have been a huge pain in your butt.

Totally agree with you Patrick. My email server posted incorrectly for this
list and it caused great offence to people here so I moved on to a forum
where I was more welcomed.
Have a nice day and keep up the good work supporting DT users.

I stopped posting to this list because people complained about my posts
being top posting or bottom posting or something else which I found very
petty. They also complained if I forgot to remove my email signature. So if
I was going to have problems meeting their "net etiquette" I would move
onto another forum which is pixels.us. I have found the pixls.us forum much
more friendly and tolerant.
