Well you guys need to co-ordinate. One day you can be the
anal-retentive netcop and the next day someone else could be.
That way we avoid the deluge of 12:1 replies-to-post for all off-topic
posts.
Note: I agree, that clc should remain topical. It's HOW you guys try
to achieve this that pisses me off (mostly because it means wading
through a lot of noise to find any useful conversation).
If something someone is posting is not to your liking, just don't
reply. If nobody replied to off-topic posts they'd take the hint and
look elsewhere for the answers. Now, if someone stops and says "where
can I find more info about $X" that's diff. But if they say "I have a
bug with $X" and $X isn't in the clc charter, just ignore the mofo and
let them sort it out on their own (and shame on them for not reading
the clc FAQ).
And frankly, replying to the dude takes less effort then "correcting
his net posting habits." So you can both say
1. Dude, you're in the wrong group.
2. While I'm at it, here's your answer.
And if the dude persists to post OT junk then killfile the mofo. but I
suspect for most after you tell them of their erroneous posting habits
they'll adjust.
