Ladies and Gentlemen,
The above posting is the nastiest i have ever seen in this newsgroup. First
and foremost,whether or not to post job postings is the issue. Once in a while
such postings are fine. However,I wouldn't want this newgroup to look like
misc.oracle.jobs.offered either.This is the 6th posting on this issue and i
hope this will be the last. 4 postings were made in reply to the original
postings and more bandwidth is wasted because of commenting on such issues.
I am sure people who are reading this newsgroup are not desperate for jobs and
if they were they would surely look at misc.jobs.* . So my suggestion is to
avoid such postings and please use kinder language.It would be appreciated by
this newsgroup.
Another suggestion is to reply by mail to people who ask abvious questions
like where are the FAQ's etc. Please desist from posting such stuff.
Steve Frampton and James Forgy owe an apology to this group for posting
such nasty stuff. if U want to say something like the above use e-mail
and spare us from such stuff. I hope everyone seconds me in this regard.
Let's make this newsgroup a nice place where one can share our problems
and solutions.
Thanks and Regards,
