Re: BIG DEAL By: Nightfox to echicken on Wed Jul 24 2019 12:35:53 Ni> Sometimes I've mentioned in those newsgroups about people addressing the Ni> right person, but sometimes they laugh it off.. I'm not sure if some Ni> newsgroups work differently where they have to address their messages to Ni> 'All'. It may not be unique to BBS-land, but it's a nice feature that we have and it doesn't exist everywhere else. In other forums, quoting tends to establish who the reply is (primarily) intended for. As in, I quote your message and then add my own comments below, so I'm essentially writing back to you. Of course there as well as here, other people are welcome to chime in. Ni> thing I've noticed happening more often lately is people replying and not Ni> quoting, and sometimes it's really hard to remember what they're talking I'm not so bothered by that as long as there's some kind of summary / something to jog my memory, but more than often that's missing too. Of course there's the flip side, people quoting an entire message (often including nested quotes) and then adding their two cents in one line at the bottom - or worse, at the top. --- echicken electronic chicken bbs - bbs.electronicchicken.com ■ Synchronet ■ electronic chicken bbs - bbs.electronicchicken.com * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705) |
