fscking hell here we go again :( anyone that isnt RMStringer may as well hit delete now. No need to swear from the start, eh?
If someone left, it was something wrong with him or her. not necessarily. thats a broad assumption to make. Well I do think so too. They should focus on the main goal of this mailinglist: KLF. Not a discussion about mailinglists themselves. Filter the fucking posts. thats what we want to do. however, because you wont remember to put [FTP] (6 keystrokes including shift) at the front of your bloddy ftp related messages, we cant. So, make a filter that looks for "RMStringer", "FTP" and "upload" or something like that. How difficult is that? You are obviously proud of internet-etiquette, which should qualify you to make a perl script that regular-pattern-matches these posts and delete them before you read them with your linux-like-client-thingy-0rz.
Throw all my email in the trash if my post bother you so much, do not read them at all. my problem with this is just occasionally you might post something worth reading. censorship isnt the answer, and killfiling you, as tempting as it is, isnt the answer either. its a bandaid of a solution. it hides the problem. the real answer is for you to remember to press 6 keys. hotkey the bloddy thing if you're that lazy. Oh yeah, pressing the 'Delete' key is that much bother also then?
I am so sorry if all you have to do is police my posts to the list. I wish dont know about the others, but i have many other things to do. i selfcensor myself from reminding you that you've forgotten [FTP] (remember - only 6 chars) many times. And already you're spending more time on this then you would have if you pressed that freakin' delete key (or were at least able to create a proper filter)
i'm not going elsewhere cos this is the very well established, and documented everywhere, klf list. i dont ever recal it being "RMStringers FTP list". I didn't hear him say that either? That's an assumption you make.
<lowblow> from the sounds of some of your posts, i wonder if the list is older than you are </lowblow> Showing *your* real age more, I would say. Stabbing someone with their low age is something kids do only anyway. And, as I said, a regular pattern match could have solved your problems a long time ago. Since you present yourself as such an old man, I assume you are able to do this also?
I am sick of your all the time berating me. so stop doing it! So, if you tell him to do something he doesn't agree with, all you have to do is keep bothering him with the same arguments again and again to persuade him? He is, I hope you know this by now, *not* impressed by your arguments. So either develop a strict SMTP-derived protocol for mailinglist-servers, or accept the fact that SMTP is free as hell in formatting your messages.
I run a service to this list for its members. no you dont. the members have nothing to do with it. you run a ftp server for your benifit. the fact it has some klf on there does not make it a service for the members. fsck, you could be giving your server details out on many lists. Since a lot of members actually enjoy his fuckin' (to use your words) server, I would say it is a service to this list. Just you and chris are not enjoying it. That's all.
If I think to use the brackets [], I will. and if you dont, i think someone will remind you until you do. Ah, that's the way to go! He offers you a little hand, and you stomp him ito the ground. *That* will surely persuade him (nooot).
ps - i'm amazed you remembered to snip away the previous text. quite surprised me. And there you go again. Not getting *any* sympathy here again :( Geez..
