Guest guest Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 Happy day everyone, I joined this group not so long ago, but I hope I would'd be considered cheeky to put in a suggestion so soon, but who knows there may be people who would be like-minded. Anyway... I am on daily digest, and I daily, I get a very long digest with some short, medium and long, some very long, posts. Some of these long posts are copied and pasted from some website, and I feel that it would be better to just post the link with relevant information so that those who have the time can go to that site and read. Posting such a long message may be counter productive as many may just skip over it. Posting just some comments or interesting clips may draw more to read about it. Those who agree please say " aye " . Cheers Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 I actually much prefer when the article is included complete... MUCH prefer not needing to go onto the web for it. Joy Those who agree please say " aye " . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 It doesn't bother me at all to have the entire article right there where I can easily choose to skip over it or read it; what bothers me is those re: re: re: re: re: 's where nobody cuts off ANY of the previous posts or replies, so that sometimes I get a digest which is pretty much a one-line reply to an extreeeeeemely long piggybacked post+replies. I've seen this complaint on so many lists, but so many people keep doing it.
