Ok. We all know the list has been kinda sporadic recently. However, when it
does go down, please don't send useless ping messages to the list to see if
it's up. They're just a waste of bandwidth for everyone. If you want to see
if the list is up, send a message to listserv@********.itribe.net with the
word help in the subject and as the message. If the list is down, you won't
get a message back until the list is back up. It's an easy and simple way of
testing whether the list is down or not. Thanks.

Of course, this message probably pisses you off just as much.

These messages were posted a long time ago on a mailing list far, far away. The copyright to their contents probably lies with the original authors of the individual messages, but since they were published in an electronic forum that anyone could subscribe to, and the logs were available to subscribers and most likely non-subscribers as well, it's felt that re-publishing them here is a kind of public service.
