Well I think most people reading the thread will come away with an opposite impression. Jerry essentially told the person asking a question to go away and stop posting here, which is hardly on-topic or helpful.
There are 6 possible combinations of posting styles, all of which you'll see preferred by various users on this group and Usenet. You would be hard-pressed to call this any kind of standard or universal preference.
