Yet, you /still/ didn't restore the missing group. Your excuse this time
would be that it was too early?
Do what you want. I'm not the only one who restored the followups you
set.
Sure you are.
what about those in your kill file?
how is it you know what they do?
Did you even read the paragraph, that you quoted, below?
yep.
Pay particular
attention to the sentence, "I have no hard-kills set for this group.". Any
downscored posters are only marked as read. Simply viewing "All Posts"
reveals everyone that posted to the thread.
noting your additional explanation contained here.
Only four people have replied to this sub-thread: You, BR,
Steveo, and myself. BR and Steveo both left the flup as I set it. I have no
hard-kills set for this group.
Who else does do you see that restored the
so what happened right here? btw - I was being
tolerant. now I'm asking.
I'm not sure I understand your question, sorry. Ann stated that she wasn't
the only one that had restored the crossposted groups, when clearly she
was.
groups? Noone. So, it seems that only *you* have a problem with it.
I'll just do as I please from now on, also.
That's as it should be. =)
I've noticed that you re-added misc.rural,
that was rather observant of you.
Thanks. Once in a great while, I have my moments. =)
can you tell me who originally cross posted this thread across the
3 groups?
That would be you. =)
Jim. I'm guessing you did it to
try and bother me, somehow.
why would I want to bother you Eggs?
That's one thing that I couldn't figure out.
You failed, miserably. All that you've proved
is that you failed to read (comprehend?)
I read it. the proper an accepted term is and always has
been 'killfile' and would have by itself made unnecessary
the additional explanation you included in 'this' reply of
yours..
Eggs, you know how top posting sort of bothers you enough
to the point of where you'll actually in your reply state
"[top-posting fixed]" at the beginning of your replies to
a top poster? doing that habitually as you do projects an
image of you as being one who attempts to impose their will
upon others. is it your will or is it what's been established
as usenet acceptable you desire to have others conform to?
It's been the accepted practice since the inception of The USENET (and
before, actually). It has nothing at all to do with 'imposing my will upon
others'. There are crap newsreaders out there [1], that place the cursor at
the first line of the reply, before the attribution line, which forces the
user to top post (which, they wrongly do, until it is pointed out to them
that /very/ few groups accept top-posting as their preferred method of
replying), or manually place their reply inline (proper), or at the end of
the quoted material (just as bad as top-posting), or they completely bork
quotes, line length, etc.
Then there's G2, which is desperately trying to convince it's users that
Google Groups is somehow, something that Google came up with. It's simply
an interface to The USENET, an archive, and nothing more. It also borks
quotes something awful, and it's getting worse with each release. It was
good that Google took over the DejaNews archive, but even the archive is
borked now. =(
the post to which you replied. 
HTH, HAND
had a marvelous day, thank you.
Great to hear it. Hope the weather in your area has turned for the better.
It sure has here. Had to get the Carharts out this morning, HEH. =D
rate the relevance of this conversational exchange for
subject topic matter pertinency towards anyone of the
news groups it has been posted in.
I'll leave the groups, and not set a flup. Perhaps a user or two will
pickup on proper posting habits. A simple search on GNKSA and/or netiquette
would do those that don't understand, a world of good. =)
[1] Such as Forte Agent (and Free Agent), OE, AOL, Opera, XanaNews, G2,
etc, none of which has past the GNKSA, and likely never will.
