Ok, with this caveat. No one is forced to read your posts (when top
posted) if they  don't want to. They are also free to boycott bottom
posted messages. 

But sometimes community agreement on codes of behavior are useful. I had
a landlady in grad school who believed a stop sign meant "look both ways
before proceeding, but not stopping". Just because it is illegal should
not stop out freedom of action.
