Bobsprit may be a troll but give credit where credit is due.
His trolls are related to sailing and promote sailing discussion
the majority of the time. Bobsprit is motivated by promoting
sailing discussions. Bobsprit is an asset to this group.

This is in contrast to people like Oz1 (whom I have eliminated
in all his iterations - all it takes is the IP number), Donal who
has suffered a similar fate, and several others unworthy even
of note who never contribute any sailing related posts, not
even trolls related to sailing. Instead they concentrate on
posting lame one-liners, inane liberal lies, and crybaby
whines.

The way to make alt.sailing.asa bearable in the face of
the above and the effete and impotent, retarded invaders
from disruptive newsgroups is to not allow them to board
the alt.sailing.asa ship in the first place. When any such
losers attempt to toss their dull, low velocity grappling
hooks all the real sailors on alt.sailing.asa do is put up
their shields and laugh and watch the failed attempts at
boarding while getting a good laugh at the expense of
the lamers who think they are some sort of threat.

Ha ah aha h haha ha h ha hah ah h a hah hah ah ah !
The only threat they represent is to stand-up comedians
because they provide free entertainment that is every
bit as funny.

The bottom line is filters and the delete button are more
powerful than any pimple-faced, limp-dicked, living in a
dreamworld, pretend disrupter who has no more chance
of success than he has chin whiskers or pubic hair.
