Hi :) If rules are set-up to alienate new users then i think they are worth ignoring. It is not acceptable to blindly follow orders or rules that cause harm or are ridiculous. If TDF set a rule that said that all users must walk backwards would you obey it? Would you berate people that didn't follow it?

In your office, you can do as you want. But on this list, we have a set of rules, that everyone should take into account. And one of this rules, is to not top post, but reply *below* the paragraph your referring to and deleting the stuff, you're not replying. Not doing this shows only your ignorance. If you're going to a football match, you do obey the rules for the game, you don't make up your own rules, or? So please, do us the favour and use the rules, that this group has given itself. And please spare us with such anecdotes - it doesn't matter here. Thank you. Sigrid PS: Btw, if you don't believe me, just have a look at the footer of the list: > Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette So you can refer to the guidelines anytime you want. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
