Oh come on, don't be so negative, this CoC thing is not really a bad thing,  that is what I think by now ..   it is starting to look like it is working after a few weeks.....

I have been included in some "spin of's" from threads that die out on the list itself, or didn't even make it there, and some EMC users amongst themselves keep chatting outside the list, in sort of a EMC sub CC-list, directly.


Maybe that is just the noise the CoC wants to get rid of to begin with, right?  who wants that?  right? the general CNC/maching/tips/ovrbearing-help  I even was included in a few threads in EMC topics, I didn't even see on the mailing list. as in "hey did you see this?"  "check this out",   etc...

That is a good thing,  that way no one gets offended by seeing a mailing list topic they didn't expect,  without a trigger warning,  or sees unexpected CNC topics they are not interested in. It is really cool to see how considerate a bunch of people have become in no time,  by not to just include everybody on new cool stuff for no apparent reason.

I think it's a good thing, it looks it is very considerate, that some responsible list members send email to others with subjects starting with "[Emc-user]" (see it?) first  than actual immediately to [Emc-users] list,  that way no one gets offende or so by unexpected Linux-CNC topics. etc ...


I think this CoC thing might actually really be on to something,   something more.. "refined" more considerate,  more thoughtful ...   ... something I never thought of really ...     like, for example, one should not just include everyone, in some CNC or linuxcnc topic,  blattantently assuming they might like it. Since this is a technical, CNC, linuxcnc group,  one should be aware that not everyone in the "linuxcnc" mailing list is interested in every linuxcnc topic...   that would be assumptious, offensive and wrong.   keep it up guys,   I think it is great and really going somewhere!!

I'm not "Special" enough to believe that the "COC" will help anything or anyone.

Yes, I just stumbled on this too.  What pointless junk.  Whoever maintains
a list can have whatever rules he likes.  Mostly the rules are "don't be
stupid"  Then some guy complains "But I LIKE being stupid." and others seem
to agree.  Can't they all find a back channel to argue on?

Block the topic on your mail reader, and you will never see it again.  (If
your mail reader can't block topics and senders, get a different mail
reader.)

WOW - I missed it all!

My wife and I left 24 Jun 2021 and returned 07 Jul 2021. I didn't check
emails until we returned.

Seems to me a lot of people confuse the right to comment with the
obligation to comment.
