Look. No-one is trying to pck on you, as you seem to think. We are all
asking you, mostly politely, to stop the annoying abbreviated words. .
This is because 1z) it annoys us and you're in the minority, so stop
feeling like you have a right to post it 2)) your english may be good,
but that doesn't mean the next German (or Spaniard, or Brazilian, or
Eskimo) to join the list understands English as well as you. This sort
of posting can be confusing when someone's not familiar with the
language to start with.

Despite being asked politely, you have continued to do it and in fact
are becoming abusive to the people who were trying to be nice. This is
not a good idea. Neither is abusing the listadmin.

No... it means Assistant Fearless Leader. As in , deputy listadmin.
