Hello list,

This is Eli Billauer in exile.

I've been at this list for a few months now. I've seen
quite "interesting" responses to postings, but being
kicked out was more than I expected.

I'm sorry not to have followed the Holy Rules, but I'm
subscribed to several lists, and not being a lawyer, I
have problems with remembering the Rules of several
lists.

And since I just re-subscribed, I got a link to the
Rules (welcome to linux-il), which is broken. I've
failed to find the complete Rules for reference
otherwise.

I sent my posting to a mailing list, which is loaded
with irrelavant discussions about almost anything.

Following the Rules or not, I sent this posting,
because I was confident that it would do good to some
people, and not bother others. I wish that others
would follow the same simple principle.

> 1. posting off topic

Did I invent that? It clearly says it isn't a SCSI
cable issue.

> 2. job offer post not according to guidelines (4
> violations counted)

As mentioned above, I've failed to find them. (Don't
appear in
http://www.iglu.org.il/mailing-lists/linux-il.html
either)

BTW, am I the only one who noticed that the famous
"B.Sc only" job offer had already been on the list, in
another format?

Is "Linux" as a password?

I believe that anyone who tries any of these offers
will find them reliable. This is defenitely not just
another chain letter I got.

Yeah, really? Read my lips: You can't *really* kick
someone out of a mailing list. In the better case,
you'll have a resubscription with a bogus name. In the
worst case, someone will waste his own precious time
on a revenge. And what did you get from that?

    Eli
