Re: [libreoffice-users] top- or bottom- quoting

Hi :)

I think it depends on how you "educate" new users.  If we continue to be rude & 
demand that new new users obey 1 certain way of doing things before we even 
consider helping them then i think that is unlikely to enamour people.  Perhaps 
when people ask questions we could just start with the RTFM answer that got 
linux such a wonderful reputation.  At least then they would have something to 
work with.

Regards from
Tom :)

So now we're bending over backwards to cater to the lazy? You maybe, not
me.
