RAS Suggestion: Post the game first!

by Jimmy and Lis » Sat, 22 Feb 1997 04:00:00

A suggestion:
  When posting, why not put the acronym of the game FIRST in the subject
line?  That way, we won't have to wade through all the posts about games
we don't play or aren't interested in.

  N1 - Nascar 1    N2 - Nascar 2   ICR1 - IndyCar 1   ICR2 - IndyCar 2
  NFS - Need For Speed  NFS SE - Need For Speed Special Edition
  GP1 - Grand Prix 1    GP2 - Grand Prix 2  DD - Destruction Derby
  MTM - Monster Truck Madness  and any others...?

  This way, us roundy-rounders <BG> don't hafta look through all the GP
or Indy Car stuff if it's not in the subject line.  Also, any
computer-related posts (video cards, sound cards, CPUs) should be noted
with some type of key phrase or word, such as "Sound card..." or
"Video...".  What does evryone think of this?

Very good idea.
And if it is possible, insert the new text in the top of a reply, so we
don't have to scroll through a message we probably allready have read
several times.

This is obviously a great suggestion, but is already outlined in the
R.A.S. FAQ that Michael Carver posts weekly.  I hope that eventually
it will catch on, but we've been talking about it for a year and very
few people do it.

Cheers,

Pooch

The only problem is that 99.9% of the newbies in r.a.s. don't read the
F.A.Q.   So there's always some:

1)  test please ignore
2)  how can I race in a simulator?
3)  Can I play rendition in simulator
4)  etc...

so there will always be some people who don't devellop there subject
name so we have to read them to know what's the sublect.  But it's a
great idea.  Thanks a lot

Good race at the Brickyard, (Old'Indytrack guy)
