Don't send 'test'. It's annoying for others, it's spammy in the most
boring way possible,
You know, there's a saying involving pots, kettles, and the color black,
but I'll refrain from mentioning it since I don't want to be bapped to
death.

You're really strange. I posted this because I haven't checked my
ML mail in a while, and there were at least three or more of the
stupid test messages sitting there, taking up space. They're getting
as bad as 'MAKE MONEY FAST' posts ... especially after the ML was
down for a day. I got sick of all these 'test' messages appearing.
Grrr.

I think that Richard was talking about a certain newsgroup and the
number of posts involving roleplaying that could, conceivably, be
called spam, and certainly annoy others.  Cheif among those players
is a certain Ms. Seawright. :-)

But Richard is really strange, I'll grant you that.
