ok, so the sig idea wasn't the brightest idea I'd ever had :-\


No, I don't think that's the conclusion to come to at all. It is a good
idea, but it needs us all to work together. So how do we work on that
side ?



...cest la
vie...win some lose some....very interesting debate , I understand better
both sides now. Im a reformed top poster though and will continue with the
bottom posting.....just need to work on the editing ;-)

Thanks all
Shannie

If everyone used the same 4-line sig ("A")about below-posting, and only
threequarters of the group forgot to trim sigs and other extraneous
material, I submit that the group would be in a worse mess than it is at
the moment, m'lud.

One answer would be for half of us to post blank messages above a sig
("B")about post editing. Even then there would be terrible trouble if A
and B sig posts were out of balance and newbies were unsure which was
more important. Therefore all A and B sig users would have to sign a
contract for a minumum number of posts per week/day/hour and somebody
would have to take responsibility for arranging sickness and holiday
cover. Then there's "C", troll sigs, see below.
