| Subject: | Lo-o-o-ong posts |
The last few days there have been many responses in which the writers
have just hit the reply button and included several original posts along
with their message. Here is a quote from the Matronics rules:
"- When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your
response. DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the
reader to the topic at hand, but be selective. The impact that
quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive
can not be overstated!"
It is quick and easy to delete all but a couple of lines from the
original post--leave enough so that people know what you are responding
to. This would make reading of the list a lot easier for those who get
the Digest form of the list. There are now several identical copies of
the Pietenpol Builder List in the archive--I don't think we need more.
Sooner or later we will have to pay a subscription rate instead of a
voluntary contribution. At the rate we are filling up the archive....it
will be sooner.
Do not archive .......and.....
Let the flames begin.
