a public service announcement
Oct. 1st, 2002 10:19 pmDear Listmembers,
It is good that you take the time out to feedback authors.
However, the feedback would be more valuable if you did not quote the entire post while replying to it.
After you hit reply, take the second to delete the story (or, in some cases, the entire digest). The person you are replying to has written the story. They already know what it says. There is no need to rehash it.
There is also no need to cause me to get a digest that consists of copies of the same story, over and over again, because people are too fucking stupid to delete the entire text before replying.
Ahem.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
Love,
Lex
