And Mr Joe Vaughan, European (as I am) feel free to moderate mails from Eric (D-con) on your own mail software. But maybe you do not know how to do that ? Please leave our mailing-list-answering-bot have the humour that makes those 100 and so message not being boring ;-)) Thx & Have a nice day ! Mac ----- Original Message ----- From: Eric (Deacon) To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 07, 2002 8:44 AM Subject: RE: [hlds_linux] [OT] Eric(deacon) > Also you'll be pleased to know that most of the upper section > of this page is devoted to you: No kidding. My last name (as far as pipermail knows) begins with a parentheses. As far as accusations of pure flamage, why don't you start clicking and reading? I think you'll find that there's a very few emails in there that can be counted as flames, especially if you exclude responses to others' OT threads. Sit back and keep your six-shooter in your holster for a second. First of all, I don't have time to be replying to each message as it comes along. As part of my job, I'm jumping between different client sites all day, solving their computer problems (basically). I don't get/check my mail throughout the work day. You may find this hard to believe, but I also don't devote the entirety of my free time to these lists. I really don't *have* much time to give as it is. I am, though, *making* time right this second to deal with this stupidity right here and now even though my time would probably be much better spent with my ass in bed after too little sleep and too many work hours. Now, I go over a day without any interaction with the list. I come home after working late (again), having not left my last call till a little after 8pm. I have over 100 emails waiting for me in the "HLDS Linux" folder. I start churning my way through them, deleting most before they've been open 5 seconds (you blame ME for that?). However, out of those hundred or so emails, there are still some I reply to, and this happens all in a row. So you get the entirety of my contribution to the list in the space of, what, 45 minutes or so? Some guy in Europe checks his mail during his lunch break and finds almost half the 30 new messages are from me (duh). And now the flamage begins alongside the demands that Valve "do something". Pull your head out and give me a fucking break. I take enough shit from clients and computers all day without having to get it from some dumb prick(s)--some of whom have contributed little or nothing at all themselves--being shitheads just because they can. Not taking the time to figure it out? Complaining that all my replies are back to back to back? Complaining that my messages may not contain any more substantive content than the massive wave of others' messages? Why would you single ME out, other than I make myself a visible target by not ignoring emails like this one to which I'm replying? Please, leave your personal issues at the door. -- Eric (the Deacon remix) -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
