Including with the recent post by the admins about the number of trading
post with replies getting onto the list here, another, and to me, a worse
problem occurring with the list as of late is the complete lack of snipping
then deleting previous text.

PEOPLE - LEARN HOW TO CUT AND PASTE DAMNIT!!!

It gets quite annoying scrolling through three, four, five, even six pages
of previously released text to read one fraggin' line at the end of it!
Especially when said people really do not add anything new except "Wow,
what a cool idea, I like it." And while I am ranting here, if you fall
behind in reading and come across a question another asked about whatever,
read ahead to make sure it was not already answered. It seems pointless to
reply to a question so many days after the thread died with something
someone else already mentioned.

I've been keeping a running list of the various threads from this server
since I started reading. This is the 666th thread for me... title changes
without a clue to where the original name went at times can throw me for a
loop. But with the recent inclusion of -

>>>>>
>>>>
>>>
>>

- have made that aspect pretty simple.

Back to lurking and wondering where the other 180 some odd people
apparently reading the list went. Seems the same dozen or so reply and
start afresh with threads - not knocking them per se, but quite cliches in
its own way.
