I'm going to ask you a huge favor here, but could you possibly stop
being such a pedantic twat? I'm sorry that asking you to spend 15
seconds to make your message presentable before shitting it out at the
other 250 members of this list is such an onerous burden, but it is one
I'm going to ask you to bear.
Just because the AOL generation doesn't know anything about proper
mailing list etiquette isn't an excuse to ignore it when asked politely
to abide by it. It's unfortunate that some people have been repeatedly
unable to manage basic email tasks such as clearly indicating what they
are responding to, and as such it has required Simba to waste HIS time
to make it readable for the rest of us.
Because, to put it bluntly - although I can read your drivel no
matter
how it's formatted, it is already enough of a waste of my time.
To which I reply:
Several post scripted sections of my reply to Simba's message about the
rules not being his were deleted before I sent my reply. You could not see
them, because I did in fact adhere to the suggested rules of etiquette and
trimmed my post accordingly. Your reply to me, however, is not related to
my original post pertaining to ownership of the rules that Simba is asking
us to follow, rather to my adherence to those rules. My trimmed message is
in accordance with the rules of etiquette set forth by the mailing list
moderator. If you would like to reply to the actual content of my message,
you may of course do so at your discretion. Name calling isn't polite, nor
is it helpful.
