Message-ID: <2930012@csd2.UUCP> Date: Mon, 18-Nov-85 19:11:00 EST Article-I.D.: csd2.2930012 Posted: Mon Nov 18 19:11:00 1985 Date-Received: Wed, 20-Nov-85 21:07:39 EST References: <2020@phri.UUCP> Organization: New York University Lines: 11 Sir, Your complaint about people posting complete game results on net.games.pbm is ridiculous: 1) Traffic is low. 2) Some people care. I suggest not reading the notes you don't care for. After all, pbm stands for "play by mail." We're playing by mail, we're all USENET subscribers, and this is our forum. I think a bigger waste and disturbing trend is the number of meta-discussions (this is my first and lst posting of a metadiscussion nature) discussing the validity of discussions.
