Subject: [noparse][[/noparse]basicstamps] Help make this list more useful and efficient....


Every ten years or so someone manages to get under my skin.
I won't bother naming this decade's offender, although it's safe to say that
the latest offense occurred within the last week or so, and had something to
do with this list..

This list is frequented by super people, real pros - those willing to help
and share, newbies looking to learn, who then contribute to help
others...... and then there's the occassional person looking to see what he
can get others to do for him at their expense - just trying to take
advantage of anyone who will allow it- something that's easy to do with such
a generous group of people.

It is so we can all see what our postings looklike from another perspective
that I post the following link. I urge everyone to read it since it has a
lot ot do with list etiquette. It will make all of us better list
participants and improve the quality of the Stamp list, if that's possible.
Remember it's only a set of suggestions - no rules are implied. When
reading, I suggest analyzing one's self rather than comparing the faults to
"so and so..".

BTW, yes, I did borrow the link from someone who got frutrated on the PIC
list recently. I would hate to see this list get to the level of need that
the PIC list had for this info.....

Hate me or thank me, here goes...

    OK, a fine time to forget the rules....

    Here's a link that should work:

    http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

    It'll be worth the effort - I promise:
