It's so sad to see Tom leave.

There must be something we can do to keep this NG alive.

A strict filtering regimin to eliminate Krause and any one else who
exhibits similar behavior could work.

Would anyone like to share any ideas to fix this NG? We could conference
over at Chucks via PM if he will allow it. Or maybe we could do it via
email.

A strictly adhered to filter regiment might work, but many, including me,
get sucked back into discussions by quoted references. *I am willing to try
to totally ignore, if that is the consensus.

My concern, in the case of Harry, is that if he runs out of people to insult
or listen to his politics, he would just crosspost in an attempt to
encourage and draw in new blood. * Hell, he has already acknowledged that.

I've had him filtered for a couple of weeks but I still see his crap in
90% of the posts here. We have to do something to get rid of him or
there will never be peace here.

Well, one thing you can do is to remember to remove an offenders post
from your reply, then all that people will see is your post.

Yay!

Tim, are you willing to stop your discussions with Harry?

I'd rather not, but on political subjects?

Sure!

Ignoring means ignoring. But do your own thing.

Not necessairily. If it's boating related, why not talk to him in a
boating news group.
anything else?
ignore...

Do your thing, Tim.

Remember, it's been tried by many others.
