Hi,
You would think that if your message was all yours, no one elses or at least
at the maximum one or two other messages to show the context, then the
moderators would let it go through. I mean... afaik the purpose of this rule
is not to stop people from posting long messages, but to stop people from
posting 20 old replies when only the latest one is relevant.
Thanks,
-Michael.

I do object, only because, as I said, a person may have a single long
idea which is valid. I've had to split up messages before, and it
isn't so bad, but one difficulty I've had is that sometimes I'll
exceed the size limit, but I lose my message, because it isn't
referenced or resent in the rejection. If it was resent, then I could
find a good place to split it up, or I could reread it to see if it
could be modified by me.

hi all, it's also to encourage people to think about what their posting
and
take responsibility for it.
the rule's been there since the year dot, so people really should be aware
of it by now.
and i won't be removing the size limit on messages.
so take responsibility for your posts because those that do exceed the
size
limit will be deleted and you'll only have to post your message again,
thus
creating more work for the moderators, and yourselves. :)
it's not difficult to do really folks! :)

I would prefer that the rule be kept. While bandwidth and storage really
isn't an issue anymore, trimming conversations is just plain polite, and
keeping them trimmed helps keep conversations on track.
