Why does most everyone's do the same? And is this another "proposition?" Or
is it an actual standard?

I'm still running Synchronet, but I'm posting messages from my Mystic point
system, which is under a major 'overhaul from default' right now. :)

He brought up a thread from FIDONEWS to poke a jab at me at Synchronet's
quoting. What he didn't know, is that it wasn't me that posted the original
message that screwed things up. The point is that he felt the need to throw
one more jab into the mix, which he had to completely change the subject in
order to do. If you don't see that, then something is seriously wrong
upstairs.

I don't know. You'll have to take it up with him. Maybe he's just ignoring
your anal retentivity? Everyone's software has flaws. Some more than
others. Your software is broken too, Mark. He did point that out before he
stopped posting.

I do remember him saying there was an RC change in his region, so his
uplink might have lost some messages, and by the time he got back, a few of
his replies never made it to you, so he just gave up on the unwinnable
battle.
