Glad to see you back! =8^) I had been hoping you hadn't been driven away |
| 14 |
due to some of the replies I saw to you... then didn't see you around any |
| 15 |
more, so I'm glad to see you posting again. =8^) |

Me? My most potentially rude replies are generally to the folks who post |
| 18 |
in HTML, which is IMO a security issue when it appears in mail or news, |
| 19 |
and to a lessor extent those who continually top post. Still, I tend to |
| 20 |
answer the question along with my request to quit the netiquette |
| 21 |
violations, and only kill file those who continue them, repeatedly and |
| 22 |
consistently. I figure it's my reply, if they don't like me reminding |
| 23 |
them of netiquette along with my answer to their question, they can just |
| 24 |
killfile me, as I'll likely killfile them if they continue the netiquette |
| 25 |
violations. |
