books is books and posts is posts. What does one have to do with the other?

2 things. One, I prefer the top posting because I want to see replies
first
on posts I've been following,

So you read a book from the bottom up?

Just because you're a lamer who uses Outlook Express, it's no excuse
to incorrectly assume that top posting is correct!

Where did I assume that either top or bottom posting was "correct?"


However, judging by your previous postings, I would assume that
you're too ignorant to know better and too arrogant to bow out of an
argument you have no chance of winning!

plonk

And that would be why your the one that's running away from me? LOL!
It's is YOUR arrogance thinking only your way is what is "correct" based
on some archaic tradition, that would be the argument that stands "no
chance of winning!"

I normally bottom post my replies, but I am not arrogant enough to
believe that my way is more correct than anybody elses, except for me.

You NetNazis deserve all the ridicule that you engender for advocating
your Netiquette fascism.

Rubbish. Anyway interleaved posting and snipping is what we want. Non
trimmed bottom posting is as almost as bad as top posting (worse if you
happen to remember what the message is in reply to)

Top posting may be fine for those who are used to computers that are
slow and awkward, but some of us want to leave those at work and use
something efficient at home.

Bear in mind we have proper news readers that colour the quoted text
differently (like pegasus mail does).

Reading a properly trimmed and interleaved message is far more
efficient than having to scroll down to find out WTF is being referred
to.

Then why isn't Acorn misspelled for the same reasoning?

Because it predated the World Wide Web

We who? Personally, I couldn't give a sh*t if you replied through your
a**hole!

In your opinion. It's is a matter of personal likes and dislikes how
one writes their replies. Just like some guys like jockeys, and others
like boxers.

Or do you go around arguing over what is the proper form of undershorts
too?!

Top posting may be fine for those who are used to computers that are
slow and awkward, but some of us want to leave those at work and use
something efficient at home.

LOL! Bottom posting may be fine for people that are natural
conformists, but those of us who are individualists prefer to blaze our
own trails, rather than slog around in the well-beaten paths of you
conformists, locked into your archaic traditions.

But it doesn't predate the real Acorns, does it? People doing research
on Acorn before the WWW didn't get confused by the difference? I guess
people didn't search for info predating the WWW, huh?
