Another Gentle Reminder

[Guest guest]

Hi everybody

I know I keep reminding you all, but please, it is important to remember to do these 2 things when posting.

It just takes a few seconds longer to post.

[1] CHANGE THE SUBJECT LINE

If you change the topic, please change the subject line to reflect what your post is about.

Some of the posts are getting very long with redundant messages, and are no longer about the origional topic.

[2] REMOVE OLDER POSTS

Your post should include 2 messages only:

The post you are responding to, and your responce.

I know we all tend to forget, [even me], but this is very important for those on Daily Digest, and also so that the MESSAGE feature works correctly for those of us who need to use it to find information on a topic.

DAILY DIGEST:

- Those on DD click on a message subject, only to find out that the message content isnt about the subject line at all.

- Those on DD shouldnt have to scroll through 15 repeated messages just to get to the next message, because redundant messages are not being removed.

These two things are very annoying, and the point of Daily Digest is to be able to find interesting or informative posts quickly, while cutting back on the number of emails in ones inbox.

MESSAGE FEATURE:

- In order to find information about a topic in the MESSAGE feature, the subject line MUST reflect the content of the message. Otherwise those of us who use this feature waste a lot of time searching through useless posts trying to find information on a certain topic.

The MESSAGE feature was set up so that one could find information quickly.

There are 3 ways to remove older posts.

[1] Start at the bottom, and use your backspace key to remove unwanted posts.

[2] Right click and highlight all unwanted matterial. Then hit the backspace key, and wa la, done.

[3] Start a new post, and copy/paste the post you are responding to, and then add your responce. [i use this method.]

Many of you already do these 2 things. Thank you.

For the rest who dont, please start, and try to make it a habit.

I wouldnt keep mentioning this if it were not important.

Please dont stop posting because I said anything.

Every person here needs to hear what you have to say, be it questions, comments, or providing info, experiances, or support.

Sharing keeps us all helping one another, and is super important.

Knowledge is key to our better health.

Thank you all for indulging me one more time.
