If ignoring loading potential posts in html is what you want to do, go for
it. You don't have to make an announcement of it, lol (Look at me I am ignoring someone everyone, whoo hoo) get the champagne out, yabba dabba doo!!! Either you have a set group of people you talk to or your don't and you are welcome to seeing new faces(fonts in this case). First case, if you already know who you want to talk to and they want to use the plain text style then get an email list going and talk that way. However, if you expect people new to the newsgroup to all of a sudden know what you want them to do and not do, you may want to rethink this. They aren't going to all of a sudden know, and it is rediculous to assume they will change if they chose to use html in the first place. Apparently they already chose it over plain text before coming into your domain of the internet. You are fighting a losing battle on both sides of the coin when you try to censor. [View Quote] |
