I think you mean "Top posting has never acceptable to you in this news
group. If you can show me when you were elected Moderator I'll give you & your anal comments some respect. If not I would suggest that you are the troublemaker who thinks the world revolves around yourself. John L.

I didn't invent Usenet etiquette so when I cite it it is not possible for me to be the troublemaker. -- A: Top-posters. Q: What is the most annoying thing on Usenet? |

[...] Manual filing systems always have the newest items on top. People deal with that everyday and manage. But this isn't a manual filing system. Its usenet and it has the ability to do inline posting. [...] Usenet is anarchy. But there is a signifigent missunderstanding about the nature of the anarchy[1] that usenet is. Its one that is founded not on laws but on norms of expected behavour that have evolved over its lifetime. One of these norms is inline posting. [1] Acutally Usenet isn't an anarchy at all, its both benevolent dictatorship and an oligarky. Usenet is ruled over by the Newsadmins who control the news servers. And they in turn accept desisions made by "The Concenesus" not because there forced to but more because things tend to work better that way. -- Please excuse my spelling as I suffer from agraphia.
