Yes.
Now the reason for my posting. This is NOT a rant, this is a simple
explanation of logic.
If it is OT, it should not be posted. If it is not OT, but (even remotely)
related to what is posted here, it should not carry the OT in the
subject.
I will put it in a diagram:
Subject I want to post
|
OT? ---> Yes ----> Do not post
|
No
|
Post. Do not use OT in the subject as the subject is not OT.
See a simple yes/no matter.
Now this is what OT posters use:
Subject I want to post
|
OT? ---> Yes ----> Do not post
---> A lot ----> Post with OT in the subject
---> No ----> Post normaly
As if you make an excuse before you do something bad. Like "I am sorry I
am going to make your girlfriend a little bit pregnant."
Also the excuse that is used is "But I thought it would be interesting
for this group." That excuse has been used by spammers since the first
spam. It is not valid for them. It s not valid for others.
So basicaly it is (again) very simple. If it is OT, you do not post it.
If it is NOT OT, you do not need the OT in the subject as it would
contradict itself.
