Ron - and any others who felt this way - we are truly sorry you found adhering to the readability guidelines too much of a burden, and that it interfered with your enthusiasm for participating on the list; that was certainly never the intent. "Moderated" status (for that is what it is called when one's posts are held by the system to be OK'd by a list moderator) is not a punishment, it is essentially the only way we can actually get a list member's attention when they are not playing by the rules. Anyone who asks to be de-moderated (via mail *to the admin address*, not to me or Joseph, and not to the list) and who has shown that they know how to play in this particular sandbox by posting origami-related, non-spam, appropriately structured content, can have that status changed. I do not think that a discussion of the merits of top- vs. bottom-quoting on mailing lists is of interest here going forward, nor, it being an insolvable "religious" issue, will such a discussion produce any results, so I respectfully suggest that we end this thread here. If anyone ever has any questions, concerns or problems with the list, its policies, or the system itself, please send email to the list admins at: <[email protected]> And we'll be happy to discuss it with you.
