I was able to distinguish Luddite's post from your reply without no
Steeenkin "separator". Who did what to make that happen?


I left his whole signature line in my reply. I usually cut them
because some people here like to make big political statements over
and over again using their signature line as the vehicle.


I honestly, cross my heart, pinky promise that "Hope you're having a
great day!" is not meant to be
political. I suppose Kevin or someone could (and would) argue that,
but
that's my story and I'm
stickin' with it.


This time your reply appended John's sig line and, of course, my
newsreader stripped it automatically when I made this reply to you

---------------------

Standby. I am going to try something. It will be a repeat reply to
John's original post (above).

John, I wasn't referring to your signature line obviously. I
usually strip them in replies as a matter of habit.
Signature lines are nice and everything but if a thread gets long with
many replies that quote everything previously said, it gets old having
to scroll down through all the quotes and repeated signature lines
(especially the political agenda ones) just to see that somebody
added, "Cite".

I try, not always successfully, to cut previous quotes that are not
germane to a reply or comment I intend to add. Keeps it cleaner for
me and minimizes erroneous attributes which seem to happen quite often
here.

There. Hank, did that work?

It's not your separator alone. I think it's your separator in conjunction
with mine, and when I try
to get rid of mine Agent says a 'persona' of 'none' won't work.

I'm not wild about this new, to me, Agent.


I use Newstaplite on the Ipad as Apple does not come with a. Newsreader.
Different shade of gray for sig lines, and Dick's post show up as a sig
line. Thing I disliked on the Newer Windows newsreader is it did not put
the extra character in front of the quoted area. So you had to add some
type of separator. But both my Windows machines died within a couple days,
so ordered a new iMac.

Really, Johnny.. in light of your unsociable behavior day after day, many
would doubt your sincerity.


Talk about unsociable behavior.

It didn't work. Your reply appended John's post. Why don't you try it
with your other computer.

I know, I know. That was what you'd call a 'tongue in cheek' reply!

Oh, and BTW, again your post was deleted when I hit the 'reply' button. It's above only because I
pasted it there. Really weird.

Didn't work for me. Your whole post is gone. But, I think it's my reader setup.
