First, this has nothing to do with "[ADMIN]" so you have incorrectly flagged your message. This is completely off-topic and, ghence, should be flagged "[OFF-TOPIC]." Second, I prefer the "" being there. This allows me to seperate my e-mail. I now have a script that writes all the CircleMUD Mailing List mails into a seperate folder. This allows me to get any e-mails that might be important pertaining to my actual MUD or whatnot without having to go through the spam of the list. Besides which, it's eight more characters. It's not like you can't get the subject of the message because of eight more characters. That's being ridiculous, IMHO. Stop exaggerating and wasting everyone's time. It's just 8 characters... <*=-+Daniel+-=*> "Forgive me father, for I am sin." +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
