Summary: Missing the point!!! Message-ID: <4720@whuts.UUCP> Date: 31 Aug 88 19:12:47 GMT References: <4699@whuts.UUCP> <1822@microsoft.UUCP> Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories Lines: 17 Some people are missing the point of my first complaint about reposts in binaries.ibm. I'm complaing about reposting when alot of people are complaining the they have missed particular pieces. I saying that the files being posted have already been posted along (up to several 6 months ago) time ago and all the initial "I missed it complaints" have passed. I don't want to see games or utilities of the same version number over and over again. As I said before, the exceptions are ARCHIVER's and UUen/decode stuff that new comers need to have posted every so often. LET'S STOP WASTING EVERYONE'S TIME AND MONEY WITH ""UN-NECESSARY"" REPOSTS.
