[Faith-talk] my thoughts on forwards...

[Amy Ragain]

I wasnt gonna get involved in this discusion but I have to add this thought/info...
taking the FW out of the subject line really doesnt help. in fact I find it even more annoying! I see the subject and think it a legitament topic only to open the message and find yet another forward!....so now instead of just audomaticly deleting messages with FW in them I now have to open the message,read a line or two and then close it and deleat it...

Just my opinion!

People here are not complaining about the content of your forwards, but the sheer number.  I can't be any clearer. The Moderator a few weeks back asked you and others that forward to limit yourselves to one per day.  That is the number 1.  Is that clear!
