The only way to be effective against those who wish to disrupt this

this, no amount of "escalation" can destroy the newsgroup.


Who started the escalation, netkkkop? Words on a screen motivated
you to file abuse complaints that resulted in a poster to asa losing
their Usenet access. And now you whine about filtering. Were you
unable to filter before? How hypocritical, Ganzy.


For example, my filter seems to have removed about 30 posts since the last
time I checked in here.


Really? What was wrong with your filter before?


I'm betting that there will now be an intense flurry of derogatory posts.
Fortunately, I won't see most them, and those that I will see, I will only
see once.


Yes, Ganzy, you will see the derogatory posts, and more than once.
You are the swine that brought about the demise of this froup due to
your desire to enforce your will upon this froup by means of
netkkkoping.


The people who are attempting to disrupt the newsgroup are puerile and
unworthy of attention. The only self-imposed (or really self-appointed)
moderators are uninterested in actual conversation about sailing and related
matters. They seek to moderate away anything except chaos. It won't work.


What have you posted related to sailing lately, Ganzy? Why are you
unable to accept the fact the your attempts to control asa smack of
totalitarianism?
