Show some consideration please

[Guest guest]

Folks, I love the enthusiasm with which people like to discuss, pose

questions, answer questions, etc.

 

But please, please, PLEASE, can we take the time to delete excess

quoted text from replies? Don't just blindly hit "reply" and "send"

without knowing what you are sending.

 

These last few days we have been seeing an increased frequency of

postings which contain 100 lines of quoted text with only 1-2

sentence replies. This is equivalent to "internet pollution" and is

very inconsiderate to list members, especially those who to

the digest. The digest will be needlessly lengthened and more

difficult to read.

 

I have made this request many times before in the past, but for some

reason it keeps happening. I am seriously thinking about changing the

offenders over to "digest" subscription so that they can see just how

annoying it is.
