I have two favors to ask of you. 1. Please don’t consider this forum as a dumping ground for stuff that you’ve written elsewhere. Try having conversations with people. 2. I see that you have your own web page. It would be helpful to us if you would link to articles instead of copying and pasting them here. You know that storage space is a monthly expense.

I'm sorry, I didn't see this before posting. I apologize. :) P.S. Feel free to delete the previous victory post, I'll just make another one with the link to it on it, as advised. _________________ - Lucan "Luke" Chartier Back to top   '); //--> Nomark Seventh-day Adventist Joined: 04 Jun 2002 Posts: 8 Location: Apopka,FL, USA Posted: Tue Oct 05, 2004 6:14 am    Post subject: also include quotes As if a long post weren't bad enough, what makes it even worse is unduely long quotes. The person replying virtually repeats the whole long post. All we need is a hint! We know what he said. It isn't as easy to read on a computer screen as in a book. People give up with so much clutter. If you want people to read all you have to say, don't make lengthy discourses and repetitions. _________________ Restin Wells Back to top   '); //--> Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First          Forum Index -> Jail All times are GMT - 6 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Heaven----------------Administration Midheaven----------------The Everlasting GospelHigh Ranking RevelationMidrange ControversyNovice ClassFlight School Trainees High Mountains----------------The Summit of ExcellenceMount CarmelMars Hill The Plain of Megiddo----------------Location Spot for the Battle of ArmageddonThe Dragon, Beast and False Prophet Convention CenterSubtle Misunderstanding Green Valleys----------------Picnic Area The World----------------University HallTown HallBillboardLibraryNewsroomFamily RoomCourtroomJail Hell----------------The Bottomless Pit  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB 2.0.11 © 2001, 2002 phpBB Group
