complaint

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Correction. Lurkers only have a say in what goes on in the list if they 
speak up about something they like or don't like - people aren't going to 
read your minds. So, anyone's well within their rights to speak up and make 
such a request; I just don't think they have a "right" to be indignant, 
and/or rude about it.
