to try to rebuild this thing in peace? I suspect that Scottie's little
scouting mission to the boating forum was maybe only the first of
additional nonsense that might ensue by other folks confused enough to
believe that boatingforum is sending trolls over to rec.boats to stir
things up.

Chuck,
You have done a good job of setting up your forum, and hopefully those
who enjoy your boating forum, will find it more productive to build a
community over there, instead of visiting rec.boats just to stir things
up and "enjoy the deviant behavior". When some of the most prolific
posters in your forum, are posting 10 to 20 insults in rec.boats to
every productive posts they make in boatingforum, it invites more
juvenile behavior and name calling, which unfortunately overflows into
your group.

As you said, it would seem to be a a simple proposal, if you don't like
boatingforum, don't go there. If you don't like rec.boats don't go
there. If you enjoy both, keep them separate. I know you are not
sending anyone over to rec.boats to stir things up, but it has been
going on. Hopefully we all can learn from the general civility shown in
your group, and ignore obvious trolls and those who visit rec.boats for
the sole purpose of stirring up a flamefest.


You're one of the worst trolls that ever infected this joint, Reggie.
Get over yourself.
