I think he's just new at this[/QUOTE] Far from it - just new to this group, & as they all have their own netiquette, I like to find out the score first. I'd suggest Henri is the newbie, as he doesn't appear to have learnt how to snip sigs. He did break the record for the shortest time it took someone to get in my killfile after joining a new group though, so fair play to him for that. [QUOTE] and anxious not to get flamed.[/QUOTE] I couldn't give a stuff about being flamed. If it's a quality one & I have time, I'll usually play along. However I don't bother with people like Henri who just post any old crap to get a reaction. [QUOTE] I'll bet 99.9% of the denizens of this group did not know the group even had a charter to begin with. I certainly did not, and never thought of checking for one.[/QUOTE] Newbie ;-)
