you are right: I'm NOT the moderator and would'nt be such one even if
this ng would be a moderated one. Beside wasting bandwidth etc. etc. in
case of much fullquoting again and again, often within minutely
responses, often additionally multi-x-posted, shorten the quotings is
not a rule but for some good reasons a common recommendation for a good
usenet behavior. And often you will find hundreds of fullquoting lines
where the poster only say "thanks". Fullquoting more than often only is
a pure lazyness(?). Ok, if you prefer fullquoting contrarely against the
common recommendation (see how to quote)...its really up to you. EOD.

eh?

which PR problem?

There are no questions about launchpad, just unfounded opinions! I am
more than happy to answer any specific questions about the Launchpad!

BTW: For everyone who said we don't listen to our users : Today we
launched CPF v2.3 and it has the option to disable launchpad as was
requested by our users!

I notice ya'll are snipping a bit?

It's good advice...just don't be too parental about it. Sometimes it is
also better to leave a good portion for reasons given.

Peter, a good evening to you!

Then I would suggest not to behave like one. One thing you cannot accuse
me of is X-posting, neither do I send my posts to the server with
hundreds of lines of the original messages quoted and just say "Thanks
you", or any other "one-liner".

So, EOD it is <By your command :)>
