What’s the point of all this re-posting stuff?

All topics are interrupted by senseless one liners which are taken out of context and which were (probably?) relevant at that particular moment.

But what’s the relevance of a reply like "Perhaps?" two months after? (I don’t even want to ask what was the pertinence then, but anyway).

How many more messages do we have to re-read before we can start posting again and and before we can try to pick up the old topics?

It’s definitely to annoy.  I didn’t know anymore the topics that I was following and had to check each one of those threads on the first page, which is not very practical, if you don’t mind my saying.  

So, VB, reposting in order to edit as well as renaming topics (as has been pointed out to you before) are two things that are frowned upon here.

VB, what I really don’t get is you are saying "in order to edit", but you haven’t edited anything!  There’s nothing new to read!   >:(

I’m a member of +/- a 100 (or more) mail boards, e-groups etc., for almost 10 years by now, i guess. But i never ever saw this kind of childish, egoistic, self-centered and pointless behaviour.

Is this an attempt to chase away the few regular posters left and to discourage, even more, the +/- 2200 other members from posting?

This is obnoxious, V!

Is this some personal late night hilarity run amok or what?

Do you have some need for rejection?

Is there some explanation that you owe us here?

Or, with any luck, was that your "good-bye, suckers"?
