Would you or someone else please explain to me why you need to filter out
messages that don't pertain to you? What is wrong with reading the subject
header and if it is no interest to you, delete it! I was off work from
Friday night till Tuesday morning, there were only 61 messages in the my VNC
group. I browse through the list by reading the subject, if it didn't
interest me I deleted it, if it did interest me I read it and if necessary
responded to it. Not much time involved. Why all the gripe about this?
Also why move it to a newsgroup? What would one gain from this?
Flame me if you want but I am just trying to understand all the whining
going on about these two topics!
Me:
No one is whining. That insinuation was pretty rude and not very
insightful. Also, no one is talking about moving anything, only adding
something. Why are you against having another optional way to take part in
discussion about VNC? Or is it that you decided to type and send this
before you thoroughly read the thread?
Just because you don't have the same bothers that others do does not make
their situations any less valid. Some of us are too busy to sift through 61
messages. Hell, there can be 1,061 before there is anything of use for me
in this list, but that one thing that is can save me a lot of time so I have
to stay subscribed.
Some people don't need to partake of this list unless there is an issue
that needs taken care of where a searchable news group is more than
adequate.
This list generates enough traffic that it is a concern to many people in
charge of mail servers and slow internet connections. Many people that are
subscribed to this list, by nature, are subscribed to other mailing lists
and any cut in email traffic is welcome and helpful.
