That's half the fun of Usenet - the entertainment value.


We are not talking about usenet. We're talking about private forums run by
individuals or organizations.


I'm begining to suspect that you are a Harry clone. *:)


Then I suspect you are not very perceptive.


Talk about losing perspective.

Wayne made a comment about losing entertainment value once a user has
been booted from a private forum.

I mentioned that, with respect to entertainment value, Usenet provides
plenty of same.

To which you replied that we weren't talking about Usenet.

I would point out that I WAS talking about Usenet in reference to
relative entertainment values of the two forms of discourse - this
being *more open and free form which private forums prefer not to
provide being more focused and topic specific.

I'm fairly certain that most people here understood that.

Now that I know you have a cognition problem with respect to comparing
A to B I'll be sure to explain it to you in future posts.


Another whiner.
