I gave you a perfectly polite list of problems with your postings one of which was top posting. At least two other people have also criticized you for doing the same. If your too dumb to take those hints your probably too dumb to realize why everyone is pissed off with you -- Pete news 'at' melbourne 'dot' me 'dot' uk |

| Thanks for your explanation - Here's mine. A while back I had a hand in SharedInterests creation. Now I am more of a user (and occasional promoter). I am unaware of your 'charter' - what is it? Presumably this is a list of do's and don'ts for your particular newsgroup? Or is this for all newsgroups?. My sincere apologies if I have 'trounced' over some of these - I had an involvement in 1992 with the pre-cursor to newsgroups (before they were called this - remember DEC notes?) and there were no such things as 'charters' back then. The site has not taken any advertising to keep it going. If it proves popular and people wish it to continue - as seems to be happening - this may have to happen at some point in the future. The owner of the site is a buddy with one of the guys behind Friends Reunited - so you can see how the thinking behind the concept might have evolved.
