J3, how many files are you uploading? just to know!


Too many, that's for sure.

Kind of selfish and inconsiderate to the many other great posters here.

JMHO,

JRW


He asked first, and the answer was a unanimous yes.

There is a difference in asking and showing intent.

No there isn't. He said he was about to post them, and asked if
people would be interested. 3 people replied to the post with a yes
please.

Where was the unanimous YES?

Subject: Intent to Flood - NASA Shuttle Images (HiRes)

And no one would say yes to 5100 files all at once.

He said he was going to flood, and nobody said "slowly please".

That is excessive and also pushes other posts off the server. I stand by that
it was inconsiderate. Again, what was the rush???

They're not at once, I'm seeing them spread over a few days.

No one was dying in wait to receive the photos. That is NOT saying that
they were not appreciated, but he could have flooded reasonably, that's all.

It's a lot easier if they're all available at once. No doubt some
parts will need reposts, if we have to wait two weeks to get the
whole lot, that could become tedious.
