If anybody had actually read the rules at http://www.krnet.org/info.html , they'd have noticed that stuff like private transactions where one guy is buying something from another guy (therefore not involving the other 650 members of the KRnet mailing list) are a great example of traffic that should go offline... that's a private matter from one guy to another, not something that needs to end up in the mailboxes of 650 other people. Another example given is striking up an acquaintance. That's another one-on-one exchange that has no business going out to so many people who have no interest in the matter. And reading the rules would have informed you that sending pictures or any other attachments to KRnet is futile, as they simply won't pass, no matter how small they are. But that doesn't keep at least one person a day from trying to do it. And another one is to always try to take each message with the best possible meaning, rather than the worst possible meaning. That helps minimize ruffled feathers...
