Ok, enough is enough. There was a list created for such off-topic discussions: suse-ot@suse.com Think the subscription is the same format (suse-ot-subscribe#suse.com) from the e-mail address you wish to subscribe. But, never remember seeing an arguments quite like this on there... Matt On Fri, 2004-03-05 at 15:25, fkamp@comcast.net wrote:
I am a newcomer to this list.
I subscribed about a week ago.
So far I have seen little to justify my listening to the traffic, but this last little jewel (quoted below) is the last straw.
I was under the impression that this list catered to adults interested in suse-linux. It looks more like a haven for kids intent on impressing peers by acting like idiots.
This is not something I need, thanks.

You top-post and full-quote-under. Haven't lost the windoz mentality.
Excuse my ignorance but would you mind to enlighten me on what is 'top-post and full-quote-under' and how does it relate to 'windoze mentality' so I can avoid it in the future in case I'm also affected individual. I use Windows and Linux/Unix and have never heard about it.
Thank you for your patience.
Martin
