Yes, that's up to those few; it could happen, but most respond instead. |

There is a need, see the previous mails about it; the need stays as is. |

I do, as I spend time on this; that time should have guaranteed results. |

If it were true, I would stop my contributions and support here and now. |

The etiquette is the standard that I follow, it encourages this; it |
| 29 |
is stepping away from that etiquette and thus results in "good bye": |

Consider that each time you tell some user to not CC or so on the ML, |
| 34 |
you're actually sending an extra mail to a ton of people yourself; |
| 35 |
whereas the mail telling that ignores the subject of the thread, |
| 36 |
please consider to do this in an off-list reply with positive words. |

And others try to help me by telling the opposite; so, when two |
| 44 |
groups of people tell you to do something that conflicts, which one |
| 45 |
would be picked? Well, pick the one that respects our etiquette; and |
| 46 |
along that, the same one guarantees that my time is spent wise. |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
Similarly, would you spend time to keep asking this everytime it happens |
| 49 |
by one or another individual or just simply filter it once and for all? |
