However, I feel provoked to point out to you that everyone has been a newbie at one time or other and NO ONE has ever mistreated for the mere fact that they were a newbie. Can't you see that it's not because you're a newbie that you are getting flamed; but consider for a brief moment your behaviour on this mailing list. You come in here trying to dictate how things are run on the mailing list and in addition to this, you post in a language that only vaguely resembles English. Using words like "friggin", etc. to convey you less than eloquent (and INCOHERENT) thoughts. Here's my advice: Try using sentences. You know, those things with a subject and a predicate. They usually contain things like verbs and punctuation. If you don't like what you read (ie no ranma content), ignore it. You don't like the list, unsubscribe! There are certainly much better remedies to your "predicament" than blatantly displaying your total lack of respect towards the other members of this mailing list. Uh oh... now that I re-read my post I actually wonder if you can understand it (considering your grasp of the English language). Anyways, that's your problem. That's my two cents. Betty of T.O.
