Does anyone notice a problem here? How long ago did this discussion go off
topic and how many people have posted without changing the tag?

How can I impress upon you all that people who are really cool LEAVE this
list because they get tired of this? I took over when we had just lost three
top of the line PIC gurus (tjaart, Scott Dattalo, and Roman) because they
couldn't deal with the OT's. We got Scott and Roman back after we started
using the topic tags. Roman left again after a long time, but we still have
Scott and MANY other professionals (who can't afford the time to read
misstaged OT's) still on the list.

Check this out:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hf47158toCNC/message/3304 Where a guy suggests
joining the PICList and the OP says: "I did join that list a while back, and
the amount of OT stuff was just staggering. Even after going to the web site
and trying to fiddle with options I still ended up with way too much that
shouldn't have been on that list at all."

It just isn't that hard to look at the tag before you press send.

I've been trying to admonish people offlist, but I can only do that after
the fact... Ok, so no hard feelings to the people who have already made the
mistake, but now I need to post this onlist to catch all the people who
apparently will post incorretly in the future.

Aparently I haven't been reminding people enough lately?


PLEASE TO DO NOT REPLY TO THIS WITHOUT CHANGING THE TAG TO OT. 

Yes, I'm posting incorrectly, but otherwise I can get to people who have
only the PIC topic enabled. If I changed the tag now, people who only
subscribe to PIC would, apparently, just keep posting.


CHECK THE TAG BEFORE YOU SEND!!! I'm asking nicly...
