Hildy the Boss has informed me that it's against the rules to refer to a poster without pinging them. I'm sure we want to obey the Big Her. She'll be along to remind you. I'm sure she wouldn't show favoritism to her own, after all.

Please tell Ms. Mamzelle that here at FR it's proper etiquette to ping someone if you're talking about them in a post and it's not something I just made up out of the top of my head.

That's common FR courtesy. It has nothing to do with Hildy.

I have been posting here for years, and I've never seen such a "rule." It is something that people who feel like doing it, do it.

Quite a bit of arrogance going on with these vanity threads, I see. Prancing egos on parade.

It's common courtesy not to talk about people behind their backs here at FR. But I can tell from your posts that you have a degree in that behavior.

Jim, can you tell her please that it is a rule here that you must ping someone if you're talking about them to another member?
