Personally I find the Off topic posts more interesting that the On topic
posts, so forcing people to go private just for list’s appropriate etiquette
sake seems a bit too far? Obviously anything actually private should go
private, or we possibly end up with annoying sales pitches.
In that regard here’s a proposal?
- If you’re going off topic, add to the subject “[OT]” (positioned about where
whoever adds [BULK] *).
(If someone went OT, be nice and add it for them in any OT replies.)
- Continue using the original thread just for on topic posts.
Okay, we’ve got Bill’s and my proposals (and de.bug’s I guess), everyone toss
out what you’d like to see. That way we can come up with a definitive “way
we do it here” statement. So people don’t get butthurt and leave in a
huff ;) . (Or maybe she/he thought I called him stupid for being young?
Lacking quality education yes, stupid, no... If they have the desire, anyone
can open a book and make up for any educational lack.)
I’ll shut up now.
Best,
Michael
* Speaking of the [BULK] thing, whoever keeps adding that would you please
edit your subject before sending the email to remove it? Better yet, edit
your rule/filter so it’s never added. Highly annoying that.
