FLAME ON

1. I never said it's a real Internet standard, I just think of a de
facto one.
2. This is better left for post-FLAME state.
3. If you're ignoring it, why are you using FLAME ON/OFF?

FLAME OFF

Yeah, maybe I was a bit too harsh, sorry about that, but I was
definately not wanting to start a flame. Thing is, the netiquette really
is something I think should be included in the rules for any mailing
list, not only for this one.
Did anyone else notice how off topic we are? ;)
Oh and, of course, the FLAME section of this email should be ignored, as
it's an utter waste of bandwidth, everyone agrees with me.
