Yeah, I know everybody makes mistakes sometimes, but this is one mistake
that is getting a little to popular. Also, if something is posted
privately between two characters, the last thing needed is that it is
then broadcast over open mail.


(Also Spike, Raster didn't write the stuff above) :) I did :)


How would it suit your plot, to have people commenting on everything you
posted? Especially when it was posted privately? I don't want to start
an argument here, but I was under the impression that PRIVATE was a sort
of sacrosanct thing. If it says Private, leave it alone. It's pretty
clear in the FAQ, maybe I am overreacting, but this is the third time
that it has happened, and I felt it was time it was mentioned.
