That's exactly what Monsieur Shagnasty is implying in his post below.

Self-explanatory then innit?
And further to owd Shagnasty's suggestion concerning top posting/bottom
posting, I personally consider it a pain in the arse to reply to a top
poster or decipher WTF he/she at times is even on about. Whilst I'm at it,
the lack of "snipping" worthless crap text from ones responce to a post also
gets up my snoz. Why include previous posters text in your reply unless
it's relative? Not only is it a complete waste of bandwidth, (ie: ending up
with a post of 10 or more KB's of unnecessary content) it also means one has
to scroll down, peel back the skin and pulp to get to the core. If you
can't get to grips with sorting the top posting habit, Google for "OE
Quotefix", that'll do it for you. After all, at the end of the day, it's a
simple matter of Usenet etiquette which IMHO is gradually being eroded
today.
HTH
Rant over, back to my popcorn and movie!
