Default ExcelTip/ExcelForum threading

Hi keepitcool
I totally agree with you that this is quite annoying.
I already sent two emails to the webmaster asking to correct this (but as we
all see also no luck).

Esp. if you don't use Outlook (or any other newsreader) it is REALLY
annoying to see new threads over and over again :-(

I'm calling on all regular posters in this NEWSGROUP.
to boycot ANY posts from ExcelTip and ExcelForum

As you may have noticed the replies to the threads
(when posted from those websites) will create a NEW thread.

These sites must adhere to UseNet rules and correct his ASP script!


Over the past weeks I've tried contacting the webmaster,
(on several email addresses).. No reaction at all.

The only way to see a thread correctly threaded is by their internal
ThreadID, not by NNTP MessageID.

It could be a deliberate tactic employed by Mr Rubin to attract traffic to
his sites... but I'll assume it's just a mistake.



I will no longer answer any posts from exceltip/excelforum
until this is resolved.

If anyone can directly contact the webmaster to have him mend his ways?
