WTF are you on about?
Thankee. Enough of the faux flame gambit
Hmmmm?

but I have enjoyed your
tags. Top, bottom and in-line posting all have a place - solely the
subjective choice of the poster. But no matter what you choose,
someone's gonna call you a sinner. Such is life.

Agreed. If a post is long and you need to quote it all (commence snipping argument), you should post at the top. Otherwise bottom is best, as if someone wants to split the conversation (as often happens) then it is possible without screwing up the text. The only thing about bottom posting is the "Mr X wrote" thing that newsreaders add seem to be aligned for the benefit of top posters!

Like OE-mutilated garbage, posted by on OE-using idiot, is about as
readable as text which has been deleted entirely?

Not a sinner, just stupid, lazy, and selfish.

I'll note that, while rare, some top-posters make an effort at
communication, by providing some context in their responses, trimming
appropriately, or switching to in-line responses when appropriate.
Eric falls into this category.

Idiot. I would not have even responded to your huge ugly posts, if it
had not been to berate you for you laziness. It wouldn't do much good
for me to trim a post that I don't intend to send, now does it?
You've done the damage, posted the garbage, wasted the bandwidth, and
there's nothing I can do about it.
god you're SLOW!
Click to expand...

My wondering about your erroneous word usage does not make me "slow",
idiot. Rather ironic, from the fool who can't even figure out why
it's not good to send unreadable garbage all over usenet.

Don't you know you're stupid?
You think EVERY poster has to snip? Think about it. Only 1 person in a 2 person conversation snips, the posts only get 1 quotation too long!
Click to expand...

Yet, in this case, neither one of you stupid top posters snipped, as
is normal for top posters. Your hypothetic "if" is meaningless.
You managed to reply to it, didn't you?
Click to expand...

Idiot. Are you implying that the fact that someone complained somehow
makes your garbage-posting less stupid?
QED!

Idiot!

"Ray's brother" indeed. Whoever "Ray" is... I guess it's common for
top posters to expect others to work at understanding what the hell
they are talking about.

Nope, just not a sad loser who does nothing but replies to usenet all day long, perfectly formatted as though he was entering it into a high-flying magzine article.

I have no idea what you are referring to, as you have stupidly snipped the required context.

I am not a top poster. Get that through your thick head.

And if two people are the only ones conversing at that moment, and neither cares about long unsnipped messages, then where lies the problem?

You said unreadable. But you read it. Clever that eh?

Dear dumbass,
the aggregate bandwidth of the news server is constant, so when
dumbasses like you post 3-5+X as much as you should, EVERYONE'S
access is slower. Even if you have 35 T1s shoved up your ass you
still will have to wait longer. Additionally it increases
storage capacity needed, raising equipment costs in a
trickle-down effect, for anyone/everyone paying for news service
or internet/etc. that includes that service. It makes Google
searches slower and reading takes longer. In short, it's not
that there's no problem, rather that you're too stupid to
understand the problem.

If debugging is the process of removing software bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in.

An Arab diplomat visiting the US for the first time was being wined and dined by the State Department. The Grand Emir was unused to the salt in American foods (french fries, cheeses, salami, anchovies etc.,) and was constantly sending his man-servant Abdul to fetch him a glass of water.
Time and again, Abdul would scamper off and return with a glass of water, but then came the time when he returned empty-handed. "Abdul, you son of an ugly camel, where is my water??" demanded the Grand Emir.
"A thousand pardons, O Illustrious One," stammered the wretched Abdul, "white man sit on well."
