<snip> << * If someone posts on ALUG, generally try to reply on list, unless it's personal or confidential. Otherwise someone searching for the solution to a problem may find someone on ALUG with the same problem, but be unable to find the solution because it was posted off list. <snip> Perhaps it would be worth re-posting the "rules" and/or etiquette on a regular basis? Are people still happy with these rules/etiquette? (I am). Steve >> Although there are exception when, for example, people need to send .bin files to fix things like scanners... Then anything other than off list would be rude. Could I add snipping text if you can when replying to long posts or a series of posts? Please? Thank you. Otherwise they sound entirely reasonable, Steve. Bev. (Who will try not to top post in future.)
