| 14:23.46 | eightyeight | i think it was TodPunk who noticed how odd it was for plug to be so anal about top versus bottom posting |
| 14:24.07 | eightyeight | well, so far, i haven't seen a single top post come through on debian-devel. |
| 14:26.03 | eightyeight | no explicit rule about top vs bottom posting, however |
| 14:26.15 | eightyeight | they do mention not sending html mail to the list though. use plain text only |

| 18:03.44 | sinuhe | eightyeight: Top posting is a plague, a rudeness caused by laziness, and poor programming. |
| 18:04.06 | markl_ | or maybe a personal preference |
| 18:04.35 | vontrapp | no, definitely a plague |
| 18:04.52 | vontrapp | a plague that some prefer :p |
| 18:04.58 | sinuhe | I don't see how it can anything but inconsiderate of others, at least when sending to a public list. |
| 18:05.04 | sinuhe | s/can /can be/ |
| 18:05.11 | sinuhe | sigh |
| 18:06.28 | markl_ | i'm happy either way - as long as each list is one way or the other. the worst is when a top poster and bottom poster get in a flame war |
| 18:06.59 | markl_ | but i prefer bottom too |
| 18:08.11 | sinuhe | I think the issue of bottom or top relates to threading. The bigger problem is trimming, which brings the problem of top posting into greater perspective. |
| 18:09.35 | sinuhe | Reading from the middle of a thread, down, then up, then down, then up again is enough to make me stop reading the post. Someone who includes all that non-sense when a response is only applicable to a small portion of it is where the rudeness factor comes in. |
| 18:09.59 | sinuhe | Rudeness regardless of top or bottom post. |
| 18:10.11 | sinuhe | goes back to his corner. |
| 18:10.56 | vontrapp | paints sinuhe in |
