For your info, below follows a message to a ringmaster who unsubscribed from this list because of the large number of postings the past few days: I fully understand your reaction, it's been a lot of postings the last few days, and some of them might be considered to be off-topic. (Btw, I just disabled the emails from webringnews for the same reason.) However, I'm convinced that the large amount of postings to the Ringlink mailing list is temporary. The Y! take-over has made a lot of people upset, and many ringmasters have subscribed to the Ringlink mailing list during the last week. There is an archive at http://www.gunnar.cc/ringlink/mailarc/maillist.html where all the postings can be read. But personally I find emails much more comfortable (and it seems to me like you are of the same opinion). So my advise is that you should give it another chance. If many more off-topic messages would be posted (which I don't believe), I would take some actions to limit the number of postings. / Gunnar
