Fw: [RCSE] Manners for newbies
Hey Randy. I believe you!!! I have read lots of 'knowlegable' replies from list members and on further questioning, find that they themselves are 'newbies' and in some instances have not even flown sailplanes. they get their answers from improvising on others replies.

Re: [RCSE] Manners for newbies
Do bear in mind that the asker could simply be hitting the "reply" button and saying "thanks" directly to the person(s) who answered the question, rather then to the whole group. I mention that because I did get a "thanks" from the last newbie who asked a questions here. Adam Till wrote: > > Sorry, can't say I agree.

Sorry, can't say I agree. I get rather annoyed when I take the time to respond (especially if the response is significant in length or effort) and don't even get a thanks. It's like people who hang up on the phone without a "goodbye". Manners still count for something. Honestly, what does it take? Adam "John J. Brown" wrote: > Harley, > I disagree.

[RCSE] Manners for newbies
Harley, I disagree. We don't need our inboxes cluttered with responses that are just "Thanks". Appreciation is understood. -Original Message- From: Harley Michaelis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2002 7:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [RCSE] Manners for newbies When answers are given to a newbie on some question, he should realize that he is owed nothing by those offering them. Rather, answers are voluntarily and generously offered in a spirit of wanting to be helpful. It follows that as a manner of common courtesy a response should be acknowleged, even if only a simple "thanks". If he is later seen making other inquiries, he must be checking the mail, so seems without excuse. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
