Wassup ernest?Your at least half-way cool out of everyone on dis list. I was
just EXTREMELY pissed off when i read the response for my question. I came
expecting Linux to be the "help everyone out" type of people, but obviously i
was wrong. I apologize to u and everyone else who got offended by my messeges...
however, i WILL NOT apologize for the gay faggots (excuse me) who were involved.
Maby if you people are gonna get so anoyed with giving people the same answer,
maby you shuldnt be in a list for linux NEWBIES! Doesnt anyone else here agree
wit me?

This is to make it absolutely clear that HTML is not appreciated in
email lists, and that it is considered bad net ettiquet in all such
lists as well as in newsgroups!

Often, those of us who attempt to use this list, grow tired of
repeatedly making the same request, and our patience wears thin.
Although it may not be your fault, you unfortunately, have the honor
of being the recipient of our frustration. Your highly intelectual
responce does nothing to improve the situation. As a result, when
people on this list see your ID in the future, they will likely delete
the request for assistance, rather than provide an answer. This is
unfortunate, but it is human nature. So with your childish retort,
you have made yourself the loser in the end. What a shame

I have not been involved in this discussion but he continues to pollute

I truly hope that you find yourself in a good paying job, because it's
going to be expensive buying book after book to learn Linux.  Your
behavior in the last two messages you've posted to this list have pretty
much guaranteed that you won't easily find help from the subscribers to
this mailing list.

There's not alot that these people can do to punish you, but ignoring
you will feel pretty good.

I'm sorry,  I disagree with tolerance in this situation.   We have to much
acceptance of unacceptable conduct in our society already.  I agree that this
is an ill mannered young man, but at some point his conduct must be
corrected, otherwise he will go through life like this.  Accepting his
comments is not a modicum of kindness, it is condoning unacceptable behavior.
Accepting his behavior will not help him it will only make his conduct worse.

That's what I get for trusting Microsoft.  :-(

Although this mailing list is marked to be posted as plain text Outlook
forgets when the person I'm replying to has used html in their posting.

I'd follow this mail list in the Linux half of this box but I'm frying
other fish with it right now (setting up a database using MySQL and
attempting to write a front end for it using C and curses). Just haven't
had the time to set up sendmail and my mail client there properly yet.
I guess I'm one of those Jekyl and Hyde Linux users at the moment.
