[arin-discuss] [Unsubscribe discussion]

[Brian Kolaci]

Even if you had a big bold link that would do the unsubscribe in one step I guarantee that the same idiots would still broadcast the same useless email out to the list asking someone to unsubscribe them. They just can't help it. The more technology progresses the more stupid people get. Its just a fact of life.

 Unfortunately, not everyone in the ARIN domain speaks or reads "plain
English" as a first language, so it can be very challenging to write
something that everyone will recognize as "plain English".

However, the suggestion to let the web server "figure it out" would be
great.  I have seen many e-mails that say:

"to unsubscribe click here, or copy and paste the following URL into
your Web Browser"

Not amazing at all. It is the logical outcome of doing things in a
convoluted manner instead of clearly, logically and described in plain
English.
