I didn't cut anything out in any of the replies (I usually cut everything but the message I am actually replying too, but in this case I wanted to make it clear I was pointing out my previous reply to the original message was wrong so I left it all, complete with proper indentation and > marks at the right levels, unlike the totally unreadable mess gmail creates, but I don't know of any way to fix what gmail does, so I don't use gmail for mailing lists). > Thats one of the oldest shitheel moves on usenet.

I was under the impression on usenet some people would try to cancel their original message if they wanted to change it, although I tried to avoid usenet for the most part when I encountered it in the 90s. Too much noise there by then. > Its nothing new and I wouldnt ask for you to be banned as an abuser but > best if you just ignore my posts from now on.
