Often times I just won't even respond until they then type what KS> it is they want to talk about or what they want from me. And almost every time they won't! I used to ignore them until they asked a question or told me what they wanted. It didn't work out and they would end up coming to my desk and bothering me in person. So I just answer the hello messages now. "Hey! Nice to hear from you! how can I help?" Also when I message someone first it's always "Hi, {question}" so they answer right away. My emails are also right to the point without any niceness or nonsense. ...."If anybody sets fire to this city, it's going to be _ME_." --- SBBSecho 3.37-Linux * Origin: _thePharcyde telnet://bbs.pharcyde.org (Wisconsin) (21:1/700) .
