OT - Off topic posts both labeled and un-labeled
I know I will take a load of crap for this but there are more labeled
and especially un-labeled off-topic posts here than I can recall over 10 or more years of hanging here. I have even re-named a few to OT only to have them changed back. Guys and gals - it is only a matter of time before we look like this: http://groups.google.com/group/rec.o...topics?lnk=srg |

Guys and gals - it is only a matter of time before we look like this: http://groups.google.com/group/rec.o...topics?lnk=srg You are part of the problem. By replying to, or reposting, the garbage you help to perpetuate it. Fortunately, the solution to both the garbage, and to you, is the same: drop all posts originating from googlegroups.com. Don't bother replying; I won't see it, as that filter goes into effect on my client immediately. |

Your observation coincides precisely with the advent of Google, which insures there are now many more instant woodworking "experts" these days, so not nearly as much woodworking advice that needs discussion? -- www.eWoodShop.com Last update: 4/15/2010 KarlCaillouet@ (the obvious) http://gplus.to/eWoodShop |
