I noticed Steve's top posting right away and was happy to see Roelof point out the list rules to him. (Wish I could share with him the PM exchange I had with Marck, who sent me the same Moderator's reprimand, when I first posted to TBUDL in October, 2002.) I came to see how much more enjoyable trimmed quoting and posting below the relevant quote really is. NB, to Steve: This elucidation of list rules should have been available to you in your Welcome message. And, I didn't say anything at the time I replied to you, because I knew that one of the Mods would soon communicate with you about it. I think it's not just a few on this list who like this way better. I think there'd be a great outcry if Top Posting and Untrimmed Quotes were allowed. Those new to the list--including myself when I was a newcomer--don't always understand at first. Most of them do come to understand. And, Those Are the Rules, so members try to abide by them. :rulez: :) -- Best regards, Mary The Bat! 3.5 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.5 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
