I do not visit newsgroups that often; and would llike to ask a question.
Yesterday I posted a query about an issue I am having, with XP, to a 'thread'
that was begun in May of this year ... barely 2 months ago.
Today I received a response in which the poster 'chewed' me out for
"hijacking" an 'outdated' thread ... and stated I should start a new thread
with the same subject.
Of course I retorted back that a thread barely 2 months old is not, IMO, an
'outdated' thread ... and further that proper internet, and forum, ettiquette
highly suggests that threads as 'new' as this one be maintained ... rather
than cluttering up the internet with superflous repetitive same subject
threads.
Comments????
