I read the FAQ and didn't see much of a reason to do things this way. As far as I'm concerned, it's aggravating.
I really wish you gripers would get a fscking life and understand that people need to be given the space to learn. This is a SUPPORT list - give people a hard time about something basically irrelevant like pedantic list protocol is only going to turn them away. Yes, let them know how they should behave, but don't take it to heart.
If we want to encourage users to come over from the other side then we MUST be prepared to accept the transition problems.

Dylan, I totally agree. As you say and w3e know this is a SUPPORT list and if we give people a hard time about about list protocol and what needs to be deleted and added, they are actually going to leave. Therefore to prevent them from being subjected to this list netiquette, let us all get on a single track and SUPPORT the move to having the list changed to a somewhat more user friendly, from a Windows person's perspective, list. -- The Little Helper ======================================================================== Hylton Conacher - Licenced ex-Windows user (apart from Quicken) Registered Linux user # 229959 at http://counter.li.org Using SuSE 9.0 with KDE 3.1 ========================================================================
