My company monitors employee internet usage, and if your usage per week is
above some arbitrarilly set magical number, you get told about it.
It doesn't really matter whether it's work related or not, but you get told
about it (not punished, just "notified"). So, going out to forums and
reading through posts actually "hurts" me, so to speak. That's why I have
other groups that I belong to via YahooGroups relay the messages to me
through e-mail.
I miss the old-timers like Gene, Opie, Mattam (although he occassionally
crawls out from under a rock), Trebs, Simon, Tom, and so on and so forth. It
would be nice to know if they moved on to other packages, stopped developing
stuff, or just gave up on the list. I remember when the tSml started falling
apart. There were a lot of pot-shots, name calling, and just downright
nastiness. It wasn't so much of a "community" as it was in anarchy. The
beginning of the end, so to speak.
I find it, well, I don't know if "amusing" is the correct word, but I'll use
it, amusing that the potential closing of the tSml has created this much
stir, though. If the people posting now (myself included) would put as much
effort in using the tSml as they are in defending the tSml, we wouldn't even
be having this discussion.
Oh, and in case anyone was wondering, yeah, I'm usually at the top of the
internet usage list <grin>.
