RE : RE : RE : [FRIDAY] Official DTD Special Offer
You don't get it. If I was the only one, yes. But there are hundreds of users who don't want to read your crap and about 10 people sending crap. So which behavior is easier to modify? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 30, 2002 4:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE : RE : [FRIDAY] Official DTD Special Offer Isn't the answer to reconfigure you mail program to pick up the responsible headers like [tiles] and throw the rest into the trash? from:Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED] date:Fri, 30 Aug 2002 15:11:04 to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] subject: RE : RE : [FRIDAY] Official DTD Special Offer Do you really think it's reasonable for me to reconfigure my mail program to filter messages every time someone decides to create a new off topic subject (OT, FRIDAY, BEER, etc.)?

Re: RE : RE : [FRIDAY] Official DTD Special Offer
I ... hrm ... :-) Even the Great Strut himself (Craig) has made note to those being offended by receiving friday-type messages that struts-user has a long history of being more relaxed on Fridays, and that such messages were considered fine. So, we've got Papa Craig's permission to let our hair down come friday. I do think it would be nice if people could confine that behavior strictly to Friday (this week has gotten a tad out of hand ...), however, I, nor you, have the ability to set precedent - that's up to Craig and the majority to do. Now, seeing as how the majority of folks are not offended by this behavior, and seeing as how many of us welcome it (on friday) as a bit of enlightened distraction, and seeing as how you seem to be in a minority of folks which don't wish to participate -- yes, I think that if you find something that offends you it should be your responsibility to do something about it. I'm not trying to be an ass about this :-) I just don't feel you have no authority over this, and, thus, should get happy and take whatever steps you deem necessary to manage your emails accordingly. I do it - you can too. It's very, very easy -- unless you have a POS email client. ... then that's just *my* opinion - I can't say it's a terribly humble one though ... Regards, Eddie (I bet if you could show that a majority of folks had an issue with it, it would be stopped - however, until then, my advice is to get over it, act like a self-censuring adult, and move on) Michael wrote: Do you really think it's reasonable for me to reconfigure my mail program to filter messages every time someone decides to create a new off topic subject (OT, FRIDAY, BEER, etc.)?

-Original Message- From: Michael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Because you're filling up my mailbox with them. Just think about it, if 1,000 people each take 5 seconds to read your email, the that's over one hour of lost productivity. Do you enjoy wasting everyone's time? The purpose of the email is to discuss struts. Offtopic is one thing but the comedy is totally out of line. Lol, click -- Delete doesn't take me five minutes. If it takes you that long I'd suggest email is the least of your worries ;) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
