I agree! (ok, I'm just kidding by top-posting on this one!)

Hi, I have been in these two lists for quite some time now and I notice there is a lot of top posting in both lists. I want to suggest that we adopt (informally) a bottom-posting rule[1]. IMO, it makes reading and understanding an e-mail reply easier as we will know for sure what exactly is the person replying to. It is quite common in many other mailing lists to adopt bottom-posting, especially in high volume lists. It may take a little effort from list members and would perhaps put off beginning posters (that's why we should only adopt it informally), but I still think it's a good practice for the rest of the lists to adopt. What do you guys think? Regards, Chris [1] For those unfamiliar with the term: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style (look for bottom-posting and inline replying section); basically it means replying right below the thing you are replying to and snipping away unrelated part. _______________________________________________ Slugnet mailing list [email protected] http://wiki.lugs.org.sg/LugsMailingListFaq http://www.lugs.org.sg/mailman/listinfo/slugnet
