None of this is directed at any one person. Remember that.
Many, MANY, of you will have gotten a request to cut your replies
recently. Certain threads have produced posts of epidemic proportions,
and it is *not* needful for you to repost the entire message.
I have gotten WAY too many complaints of spam lately. I am
targetting certain posting patterns that I believe are contributing to
the problem.
I have several other targets. First, sigs. If you do *not* have
sig characters, and your sig never changes, this applies to you. You r
sig should not be larger than 8 lines, and should never be longer than
your post. (If you have sig characters, your sig changes, and is really
part of the post. This doesn't apply to you.)
Second, private mail. Use it. We do not need to see every
response to every post.
Finally, please don't be angry at me for this. I like to post
often myself. I'll will try to cut back as well, so as not to be a
hypocrite. All I ask is that you try to help me cut the spam.
Thanks.
