Hello all. Just a few reminders about list etiquette. if someone sends
you a private message, it's meant as a private message and you really
should not forward a private correspondence to a public list. This is
one of the reasons why we have some of our lists configured so that
simply pressing reply sends the message to the sender. This way if you
want to say thanks or me too, the message goes to that person, and not
the list. Quite frankly, I personally don't care if I am thanked for
answering someone's questions. I'm happy to do it whether I get thanked
or not. However if someone wants to send me a thank you, then it should
come to me, not the list.
Another thing, and this should go without saying. if you have a problem
with a person, take up with that person alone and via private email.
Again, if a discussion sparks up about it, it's proper etiquette to keep
it private. Forwarding private messages to a public list is simply
airing your dirty laundry. Quite frankly I want to keep working on the
BookSense manual and when I have to read the list and start feeling like
I'm a dad at work as well as at home, not only is the manual not getting
done, but I have to start thinking of some of you like children. I'd
hate to do that because I like respecting you and would like to treat
you and think of you as adults.
Let's remember that the world is not black and white. if the BookSense
does something you like, great, but if it doesn't do it in the way you
want, there is a gray area. So let's all step back and chill for a bit.
And lets' leave our flames to ourselves. But if you really need to get
out some energy, don't take it out on each other, instead, come over and
clean my huge yard.
many thanks.
