I think at least part of the issue is this mentality that seems to imply that this is _your_ list. Looking back over some of the archives, I see a fair number of threads that you've started that either don't receive any replies, only receive replies from you, or receive a variety of replies, but non further from you. That's not the only pattern, but at least in my mind, this contributes to the "rambling soliloquy". Rambling might be strong, but it certainly has a feel of talking to yourself. Further, the "it's easy to ignore an email" is a bit reaching. With a web forum, users need to actively seek out topics to participate in. With an email list, everything is delivered to you and "ignoring" a topic requires specific action. If something is off topic it's annoying, especially if the posts are frequent, lengthy, and from the same source. > how the vote turns out. Who are you to call a vote anyway? The list doesn't have moderators (that I'm aware of). The only vote should be on your end. If people don't appreciate your posts, and no one asks for more, find a new venue that is interested. But, whatever. I'm usually content ignoring posts. My biggest complaint is your lack of capitalization. -- arno s hautala /-| [email protected] pgp b2c9d448 _______________________________________________ Markdown-Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/markdown-discuss
