This is OFF TOPIC, end this thread please.

huh? but the list description says it's for on topic and off topic
discussions...you even said that to me...so what's wrong with discussing
this? :-/
Allowed Posts Cctalk subscribers may post both on-topic and off-topic
messages.
in fact...you indeed did say to me that off topic posts are indeed
acceptable on this list when I inquired about having my membership approved
so I'm confused as to why you're now saying the thread should stop because
it's OT when you told me and have put in the list description for this list
(this isn't cctech) that OT posts are OK...(I can provide the original email
with headers as well too for proof that that was really said):
Probably not approved because we tend to get busy and new join requests
aren't always highest up on the list of fires we have to fight :)
Ok... I will approve your list membership immediately - as soon as you tell
me which list you want to be on. cctalk and cctech are the SAME list. You
don't want to join both or you will get duplicate posts. The only difference
is that any posts we feel are off topic are stripped from cctech before they
go out. So with cctech you get nothing but strictly on-topic posts. On
cctalk you get all those posts too, but you also get a bit of non-computer
or off-topic banter posts amonst the listmembers.
Please pick one and email me directly at jwest at
classiccmp.org and I'll fix
you up.
Jay

Hi, I've applied for membership to both the cctalk and cctech mailing lists
a while ago and again tonight because I never got any confirmation as to
whether or not my application for membership to those lists ever got
approved or not...I'm assuming not as I don't believe I've gotten any emails
from either list...can you please tell me why my
memberships are not being
approved? Perhaps you just forgot and would please be so
kind as to approve
my memberships for both lists? Thanks! :-)
P.S. Sorry if you get this email twice, not sure which email address is the
best one to reach you at..oh and the email address which I'm signing up with
is the same one as I'm sending this email from ( hexstar at
gmail.com)
