No, I posted my definition of "nothing" above, and it really means--"nothing". Sort of saying "Have a nice day", which isn't functional here, considering we are not actually talking to each other here [N/T]

: : It depends on your definition of saying nothing. I do not consider myself to have said nothing or other people who's messages I've read. maybe people have been discussing things at the moment that you don't particularly relate to. Nothingness has certainly not been my experience.
: : Even if someone just makes a joke, that isn't nothing. It's very important - a community without jokes can be dangerous.
: : People put one liners for all sorts of reasons; to give support, to joke, to add a pithy point, to question one point of a message etc. Some of us don't have much time/money they can spend on here and may wish to respond to posts briefly for that reason.
: : I post both long posts and one liners. Sometimes my one liners get a bit longer than they should be. Sometimes I forget to add NT. It's a bit unfortunate if people leave in the NT when replying as you may never get to find out what they said.
: : Sometimes people put something into a one liner because with the amount of messages on here, they want to ensure that the core of what they say gets seen by a particular person or by the board in general.
: : If you wish to regulate our postings more, why did you ask in that way, rather than requesting the use of certain guidelines?
