       On 2018 Jul 03 11:12:32, you wrote to me:               BP>>> you are still connected to dead ubuntu ?        ml>> no, you reconnected it with your link message...               BP> i dont understand it yet              you have hubs and and you have leaf nodes... the leaf nodes remove dead       echos... the hubs remove dead echos... some hubs are connected to other hubs       for ALL echos... even new ones being newly created... you send a post in a       dead echo that doesn't exist and it is automatically (re)created on upstream       systems... this (re)creation continues on up and down the distribution       stream... some hubs or leafs do not allow auto-area-creation... some do allow       it... then you end up with separated puddles of systems with a dead echo that       was removed and then added back because someone posted a silly link test       message in it...               BP>>> why blame me ?        ml>> because you did it...               BP> how ?              see above... every time you do this, you reset the counter on dead echos... it       is not a GoodThing |
