Thanks for the p*i*n*g. How do I mention a p*i*n*g
without doing a p*i*n*g? I have vs other newbie queries
too, is there a FR How To Forum?

Be that as it may, this story was one that needed to
be publicized.

There's an old thread for newbies and their ?s. I used to have it bookmarked before I sent my laptop in for "fixing". It's now on a disk but who knows where, I don't.

Check out the homepage and click anything that looks like it might be it.

The ping is really just symbolic, in a sense. Any time you post a reply - IOW, a comment that has another FR member's name in the "to" box, is a ping. It draws the other person to it in a remorseless magnetic manner.

:>)

Getting a "ping" via a pinglist just means many people were pung all at once.

Crystal clear now, I'm sure.


If I find a link to that thread, I'll ping you.
