Actually, I have a complaint, but no specific admin request. it's waking up every day to find like 100 emails on this list mostly made up of 4 word replies to something, stuff that looks like it belongs more in an IRC chat room than on a mail discussion list. Reading a string of 3 or 4 word joke-response-joke-response tit-for-at little things gets annoying. 

It's ironic someone would complain of long posts. I guess if you include every previous posted thing into one of these terse little snarky comment type reponses they do add up to it being one huge email, but most of what I see is, like, posts that really are like 5 or 6 words' length at most.

Oooh . . my first Admin request :) 

Can you all try to trim the posts before they are sent, the maximum post size allowed by the list is 50kb and a couple of the bigger threads are requiring authorisation for every new post (guess who has to do that . . .) 


Thank you for your time
