YES I liked it when they did that.
That always kept me from forgetting to "clip" the message I was replying to.
Especially then when it DID take a while to download newsgroups and message sizes WERE important.
It would be nice if more bottom poster would clip their posts more effeciently. at least when top posters do it its less annoying. Still an utter waste of bandwidth and storage but at least it does not make reading even more aggravating.
its annoying enough to have to read bottom posted replies but reading bottom posted unclipped replies it outright aggravating.
Sometimes if the message KB size has not changed much I simply outright skip them.
