Re: What is happening to this group?...Subject lines

[Guest guest]

Hi Group:

Let me make this suggestion as to the Subject line in our posts. At the

beginning of the subject

line, just add one of the following before you type in the actual subject. This

way, posts that

people aren't exactly interested in can be deleted and everybody should be

happy.

ADMIN: Messages from List Owner regarding vital information to all List Members

and messages to

List owner regarding list issues.

DX: Messages relating to issues regarding the diagnosis of RLS/PLMD

TX: Messages relating to any type of treatment options for RLS/PLMD

ALT/TX: Messages regarding alternative forms of treatment

MEDS: Messages regarding all types of medications

SYMP: Messages regarding symptoms

SUPP: Messages requesting support or giving support among List Members

CHAT: Messages of a social nature

HUMOR: Jokes, humorous messages, etc., that do not contain offensive material

MISC: Messages not falling into the above categories

MOD: Message directly to List Owner. Please post these messages to

rlssupport-owner (AT) onelist (DOT) com

Jodi and all,

This is getting complicated! I'll try to adhere to the new system, and I

appreciate Jodi's efforts to make life easier for whoever it is that

needs all this advance warning, but I can't help but think we all are

doing an awful lot of extra work for a very few who must be even more

technologically challenged than I am. Most of the posts seem to be from

people from have no problem, and the few that did, quit anyway! Maybe

there are private opinions sent to Jodi that we don't see. Sometimes I

get this horrible flash-back to my first marriage, where everyone was

frantically trying to accommodate a very hostile manipulative individual.

Obviously this group is nowhere near the craziness of that situation,

but there may be some parallels.

Ah ne that's so true. Here we are frantically trying to please a few

while confounding many. The whole thing is making my legs buzz.

CHEERS!

Jeanne and Mr. Biggles in Poultney VT

Mr. Biggles and I got stopped for speeding through Woodstock VT on the way

to the VA yesterday. Gee, 7AM no other traffic around and I was flying

through doing 40 in a 25 mile zone. Thought I should let you all know

before it hit the headlines in the Boston Globe. (no I didn't get a ticket

or a warning but I did have a pleasant but embarrassing conversation with

the nice young member of the local constabulary!) Mr. Biggles hollered

great obscenities throughout the entire ordeal.

Hi to Everyone,

I changed my yahoo e-mail address from janegf@... to

hickorywind_98@....

In the process I lost all of my e-mail, folders, addresses, etc.

Anyhow I don't want to get into whatever is going on re " subject

lines " - but a policy has been put into effect, I did not receive the

information.

Can someone send this to me so I don't screw up in the future?

Dear Group:

The reason for the subject line suggestion was to try and make it easier for

all, definitely not to complicate things. I didn't expect all of the

negativity towards the suggestion, so just put whatever you want in the

subject line, just so long as it has something to do with the subject.

Whatever works for you all, that's great. I haven't felt much like reading

messages for the last 5 weeks anyway, being sick with pneumonia and trying to

get myself better, but I thought that this might be a good idea as a result

of one message that I read from one of the members. Guess I was wrong. I'm

not angry or upset about this, I just wanted to let everybody know that this

is not a " requirement " , just a suggestion and obviously, there are quite a

few that don't appear to care for it.

Regards,
