As far as your other thoughts, as Ben said: I don't care if you post or don't post-- TOFU or not-- IMNSHO, I think you are trolling and I don't like trolls. It wastes band width. http://www.talkaboutsupport.com/group/alt.support.anxiety-panic/messages/503... As you well know, the mail I wrotes was in direct reply to a qustion that was asked twice -- namely: What is TOFU. I wrote it last nite. I tried to send it then, but Netscape was down.. It was just the luck of the draw my mail went out at the same time yours did... Oh, well. ******* Now if you or any one else can answer a question I really care about I would appreciate it: How can I increase the number of Recent Documents that KDE Keeps track of ??? It does 12 on my boxen I would like it to do 20. I am running SuSE 8.2 and KDE 3.1.1 I have looked in all the places I can think of The KDE Control Center, properties, ~.kde, etc. I am probably just missing it... Can you help?

Hi What You said about Troll-syndrome does apply to people who do start the TOFU war.. I'm totally happy with me, I just saw a newcomer being flamed almost immediatly, scaring him off this list (I assume from his post). If that is the way these individuals wants, it's okay by me. But still I couldn't resist to defend him along others top-poster, who are not suffering from the syndrome like some of bottom-posters seems to. I haven't seen any top-poster to start flaming other people who use bottom-posting. This does tell quite a lot of them...? Jaska.
I don't care if you post or don't post-- TOFU or not--
IMNSHO, I think you are trolling and I don't like trolls. It wastes band width. http://www.talkaboutsupport.com/group/alt.support.anxiety-panic/messages/50 3927.html
If it is about courtesy, tell me why few top-posters has been flamed so that they have left this list, but none of the bottom-posters? Why these kind of chains has always started by bottom-poster complaining how people write? Maybe the top-posters has had the courtesy of leaving because they do see what the opponent is made of? So let the bottom-posters have their way... It is one part of the sydrome, need to get the victory. Let them teach all the world how they are superior and they do know how to write correctly. Let them join M$! (oops..sorry) Jaska.
You just don't get it, do you?
This isn't about winning or losing an argument, it's about courtesy.

I'm sorry, Jaska, several of us tried to help you, but as I said
You just don't get it, do you?
That's all, Folks! Terence

Terence ok, you won. I'm one of those with a lot more to do in life then listening to this bulls**t. I was thinking that I joined a SuSE mailinglist, stupid me, so I'm quickly chancelling, probably not the only one. Cheers, Herman

Herman, This thread developed it's tenor fairly quickly- ignore the threads you don't like or have an interest in. As for cancelling, that would be a loss to the list and, maybe, to you. Please don't let one thread turn you off a list that is very useful and supportive of anyone interested in Linux, especially SuSE Linux. Like any club or voluntary organisation there are norms- is that unacceptable? Terence

Terence Agreed, but why not simply ignore, /dev/null Trying to explain is mostly just a waste of time and clogs up the list. Cheers, Herman
Just delete threads you don't like, thats the best way. Like Terence said, don't let one silly thread turn you off. Matt On Sat, 2004-03-06 at 16:40, Terence McCarthy wrote:
