Hi :) I try to sometimes but i guess i could try more often. It negates one of the advantages of top-posting and sometimes when i have tried this it has led to other flame-wars about what is good trimming and what isn't. Also i'm not sure that appeasing the bullies would be a good idea. Giving ground encourages them to push more.
I do like using the Nabble interface when i get the chance and i hope that helps with the issue for the non-bullies that may also be affected.

You're doing just fine. However--when replying--could you take just a moment longer and trim your "reply". That simple action greatly improves the flow of the thread whether in a reader, in a mail tool (Outlook), or from the Nabble interface. Suspect that would lessen the ire of the pontiffs of newsgroup style lurking in the forum.
