Yeah, right.

OK, for the sake of argument, let's just say you are 100% right.

Was it worth running away 99.9% of the other posters that wanted to talk
boating? What have you really accomplished with your selfish posting, other
than ruining what was once one of the most active newsgroups on usenet?
Congratulations, dip ****.


We did a study a number of years ago and found that Harry post so often
he couldn't have ever left his basement. In fact it was difficult for
many to understand how Harry could bill his clients for hours worked
when he spend all of his time posting to rec.boats.


There was that twenty four hour period when he posted over 100 posts,
back the first time we did an organized "boycott" of him. That's also
when he brought in the groups of crossposters and started spoofing
everyone including himself...
