My personal observation only of course – I’ve seen that a lot of “entry level” questions are met with incredibly snarky comments which I find very off-putting. The participants on this site should welcome all questions – it’s an opportunity to teach, not ridicule.
Bill Reese From: alan.he...@gmail.com [mailto:alan.he...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Alan Hewat Sent: Friday, May 08, 2015 11:07 AM To: Leopoldo Suescun Cc: rietveld_l@ill.fr Subject: Re: regress in crystallographic good practices and knowledge I apologize in advance for attaching a file but I cannot share my astonishment without it. ....that´s why I worry more and more every day. And I worry that people are still attaching files to the whole list when they are explicitly asked not too. Most papers are on-line now, so just give a link to the paper. Or post your file to a free file sharing service - see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_hosting_services Anyone who still posts files to the whole list is automatically suspended for 1 week. Actually, I worry that the Rietveld list no longer serves a useful purpose. There are few interesting discussions, and apparently few people actually read the posts.
