Subject: Word of advice


Like I said, I'm just going to be in the backround from now on, and won't
really give any opinions on anything (heh it's not like you guys really care
though, right?) but I did want to give a few last "parting" words. You
people that reply to messages and judt delete everything need to stop. I
mean, you see I get a message saying one line of text answering a question,
and since these messages are not all super orderly and arranges by topics of
conversation or anythnig, its usually really hard to know whats being talk
about, for example: Say a message was sent saying: "Is tinkering a cool
skill?"

Then someone deletes everything in the previous message and says: "No, it
sucks, we can't make a darned useful thing!", well then unless you
remembered back to the previous message, you might not know what he meant,
as you can see, so could you at least leave the message text from the
previous message if possible so to make it easier for people to discuss
things, making it more like a "Message Board", and less like a chat room.
Thanx.
