Re: trimming / bottom posting

2004-01-31 by Ben H. Lanmon

My vote would be for trimming to just enough information to make 
your post mean something and/or deleting orginal post message in 
replies depending on what makes your reply clear to someone reading 
it.  They can go back and read the post before if they need to.  Not 
quoting the whole post will save storage space for the information 
that we are all here for in the first place.

Yes please do delete post that offer no usable information to the 
topic of the group list, such as all the post on trimming/bottom 
posting.

Also I like the idea of not being a control freak and dicating in 
detail how a message is to be posted.

Yes this post may be delete as needed.
