Noobs are noobs and they cannot be expected to learn list ettiquette first before they can learn about what they want!. So, what is more important is guidelines for the old timers: 1. If it seems to be the first post of a member, only those who answer their queries can point out the OP's etiquette transgressions 2. If you are compelled to respond in a tangent to the original post, then start a new thread 3. Except for purely technical queries and responses, if your post is longer than 140 characters, then just write a blog about it and post the link here. Please do not trouble a captive audience * That said, do not preclude adults who join the list perhaps NOT to learn linux indepth to make a career out of it, but to just use it as they would use a windows pc! If they want a fish and if you have one and can give just give. If you dont just ignore and go your way. * this post is excused because it is meta :-) regds _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
