Gilly,

I'm not very comfortable with you using Art Linkletters dead daughter
name in your replies; to me. Please don't!

As far as my replies to Crazy Neal, you had better Goggle a bit and see
just how long we have been at each other. I would say its 10 years. Long
before you arrived.

You are hurting ASA just as badly as Neal, with imaginary beings. You
are one of the worst offenders in the group with "Make Believe" So, Bug
Off! Let the dead rest in Peace!



He doesn't care.


Putting thoughts in my head?

The whole Neal/Ellen/Gilly/Sockpuppet/flonker stuff is a microcosm of the
kind of people out in the world who would rather tear down than build or
contribute. These people would never do what they've done for as long as
they've done it without a pathological need to do it.


Ever really look at all your posts, especially the personal attacks, foul
language and admission of illegal behavior?

How many years have you been here? How many posts?


Sure, there
are always going to be disagreements, over politics, religion, etc., and
most adults deal with diverse views as adults.


hahahahahahahaaa!!! This from Mr Ad Hominen himself!

Unfortunately, there are a
few who are not capable of acting like adults, and thus we get the attempt
to lash out, damage what can be damaged, throw a tantrum, try to cause
trouble for people.


So are you in the adult category?

Usenet newsgroups tend to attract them, because they
have the illusion of anonimity. They can't change who they are, which
makes them easy to identify.



The more one reads the more they realize you are talking about yourself.


Also, unfortunately, there's not much anyone can do about it unless it
really crosses the line into legal harassment.


Such as stalking Neal?


This has happened a couple of
times, as a few of us know, but mostly they're paper tigers.


And what about the small bit that isn't a paper tiger?

The best course
of action, which I've learned finally, is to ignore them as best as
possible. Fortunately, for most, it's fairly easy to do this
technologically with such things as killfiles.



But yet you still report people when you could simply killfile them!

Everyone has a different level of tolerance
for these sort of people, but making an effort to restrain oneself is
usually worth the effort.



Restraining yourself takes effort?


I've noticed a good amount of the "trouble" on this group centers around
you. People come from other groups to stir things up just because of you.
Usually when someone mentions personal attack, it's you who flings it. When
someone quits because of a member's obssesion with complaining to their
ISP - it's you. It's you who spews the most hatred here. It's you who toes
the hard dogmatic political line and woe to those who disagree. It's you who
is famous for extreme intolerance of others and yet you prance about
preaching tolerance.

In the past I walked away from here only to be talked into coming back by
several others. The last time I did it begrudgingly out of personal
friendship. Just pray to god you never meet me in person.
