OT postings are simply a matter of good manners. Either you have them
or you don't. I have a handful of mail lists at yahoo and when the
signal to noise ratio get out of hand, I put all posts on "moderate" for
a while. If I see a subject of "Afghanistan thinking " the message does
not go through and I don't bother to explain. The owner of this list
should consider that one or two messages posted that don't get posted
soon cures the habit of "inconsideration". I have done this and would
suggest a parallel list called Olympus-OT be created with all the same
members for OT comments for those that want to participate.
Please, a little discipline and restraint guys when you fill in the subject
line. If it aint cameras, JUST SAY NO and don't send it. Go ahead and type
a bunch more if it makes you feel better. BUT DONT SEND IT.
Incidentally, the OT lists I've created for my groups also serves another
purpose
as they allow the posting of included images and attachments for those with fast
lines.
This is particularly applicable here with this photo oriented crowd.
