Why am I being attacked for wanting to be able to use a mailing list that
isn't cluttered with off topic information? Why do I have to spend my time
reading headings and filtering? As a list user, I personally would rather
not spend time filtering off topic messages. I do though because I have to.
What you are referring to is not "my way", it is the way I understand the
list is supposed to work as outlined in the welcome message we all received
upon joining the list. You say "let the moderator do his job". Hmm seems not
to long ago the moderator was doing his job in regards to the whole off
topic "Linux" discussion. That was only a few weeks ago and some still
choose to disregard what the moderator had to say in that whole mess. That's
fine, I'll keep deleting, filtering, whatever. It was just a plea on my
part, to try to keep things less cluttered and more useful/ pertinent.
