RE: Vs: Manners ( Was: Fairy pics)
I wouldn't sweat it. As you'll see often on the Web, and this list is no exception, people who are absolutely pedantic about 'netiquette' sometimes pay little attention to plain and simple courtesy. You do not post more than many others on this list, and you are certainly not offensive. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of petit miam Sent: April 17, 2001 11:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Vs: Manners ( Was: Fairy pics) That is all I will say on this subject unless someone manages to get me really riled up and I just can't help it.

Re: Vs: Manners ( Was: Fairy pics)
Thankyou Chris and others for your support. I have to reply to this message. Sorry if it goes over my Raimo-set quota of one a week. Actually some of us on this list have a job to go to. I am working about 55-65 hours a week. This means I do not get the chance to check my email hourly or even daily. I do not even have a computer at home until a few days time when my brand-new one arrives. I try and check about every 3-5 days. There are a lot of topics come through during that time. I certainly do not comment on all available topics, only the relatively few that interest me, or where I have knowledge (for example French swearwords) to contribute. I am not going to apologise for this. I am sure I have many supporters on this view, and I don't feel I have done anything wrong. That is all I will say on this subject unless someone manages to get me really riled up and I just can't help it. Jody. > Hi, Raimo.

Re: Vs: Manners ( Was: Fairy pics)
Hi, With the greatest of respect to all parties involved, perhaps it is now time to take this dispute off-list, if it must be continued at all. I don't wish to choose sides here (although I do have an opinion as to who "started it", and who may rightly feel aggrieved), and I also understand the desire to "get in the last word", but surely nothing more is to be gained by continuing this in the public view. IMHO, everyone has now had an opportunity to put in their two cents, so nothing constructive can be further accomplished here.

Raimo, why is it that you have chosen to attack Jody and not myself? If you had been observing PDML over the past week or so, you would have noticed that the majority of postings have been by ME or about questions that I hav asked or in regards to topics that were posted, yep, by little 'ole ME. So much so, that I even apologised to the PDML on-list at one point for taking up so much bandwidth... a point btw, that nobody else seems to mind. " It really is not mandatory to reply to each and every mail..." This is called common courtesy Raimo, a skill that you do not appear to have mastered, but one which seemingly come naturally to Jody. "When you call me "an asshole and a coward"..." He is telling the truth One more thing that it may pay for you to consider is the fact that Jody, myself and a number of other posters are in the SOUTHERN Hemisphere. We do not receive the digest/postings during our work hours as many of you northerners do. The emails pile up in our inboxes while we are SLEEPING, so it makes sense for us to read them during the day and then post responses to them chronologically. I have noticed (as you would have if you had OPENED YOUR EYES), that frequently Jody, myself, Rob Studdert and a number of others who post from Australia and New Zealand follow a similar pattern, and will go for 2-3 digests (I subscribe to the digested form of PDML) without posting any responses and then post a "bulk" number of responses to those topics that they are involved with or interested in, one after the other "All the best!" Is this a joke, considering what you have been posting lately? fairy. PS I suspect that somebody is suffering male PMS. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

OK, Lasse, I admit that was a bit over the top - but I do not like half of the PDML bandwith being used by one poster - reminds me of one Gregory long time ago. It really is not mandatory to reply to each and every mail. When you call me "an asshole and a coward" I take it to be just a Swedish form of courtesy. All the best!
