You are overlooking part of my (same) last post, I quote: --- My still ideal post from Chris would be: "Abyss 1.20 is out. We are excited. Email abyss_details@xy*.ab* to receive an automated reply FULL of details, or check out our web page at http://......., or join our mailing list by sending mail to ........" --- And again, I state that I wouold never have a problem with such a short succint message appearing on techdiver (others might, I wouldn't), of course assuming it is tek related (which Abyss is). > Somehow I would consider an add as having to have certain other peices of > information. I never said it couldn't be worse ;-) (or more offensive to me, might be a fairer statement) > Am I imagining things, or did I not post any of that information?? again, a lack of ALL characteristics EVER associated with an ad, does not prevent something from being an ad. (or perceived as such) > But, for the 5-6 people that are consistently unhappy with me posting any Its not ANY info, its when its PAGES of info. > information about Abyss, once the FTP and WWW are up and running, I will try > not to burden them with further information on Abyss. I look forward to seeing " Abyss for the Mac is now shipping. Please check out web site at http://...... or email abyss@xy*.ab* for all thee details." > /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ > Christopher M.
