Tom has a point and it's too bad more people don't take his view. I've read this list for a number of years and it always amazes me when people reply and make a big deal over it as opposed to simply ignoring it or using the delete key. While I believe that replies are necessary with repeated infractions, do we always have to jump on someone the first time they do something 'wrong'?
- Tim Tom Bombadil <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/02/2007 08:42 PM To OpenBSD <misc@openbsd.org> cc Subject Re: Wanted: OpenBSD Systems Administrator The just guy sent one single e-mail asking if a bsd user wanted a job, which I bet many among us might be interested. A bit off topic, yes but if that doesn't apply to someone, bitching just creates more noise... As it is clearly stated in that page: "Complaining about and commenting upon spam on the list proper is counter-productive as it generates more traffic than the spam itself." So, while his spam could potentially give any a job to a fellow BSD user, all complaints about his post accomplish absolutely nothing. Happy new year!
