Wow, years ago I enjoyed reading this newsgroup. Yes, that Harry K
clown
was dominating the group back then, if you locked horns with him, he
ratted you out. He did, he called every authority in my city and
made up
stories etc etc, typical rat.

But the group still is in a mess, wow, aren't there anyone here
insteresed
in boating? Is this just bickering and backering back and forth and
ratting everyone out? Snitches and rats,,, I thought it was boating
and
cruising.





Hello! I, Wilbur Hubbard, still endeavour to post timely and on-topic
material. HarryK hasn't been too disruptive lately. He's started his
own
moderated forum that he censors so that seems to have improved his
sour
disposition and assuage his bully tendencies.

Unfortunately, we now have some PUTZ who is sending libelous posts and
threatening posts via anonymous remailers. That type of thing makes
for
enough clutter that it drives some serious subscribers away. I try to
add
valid and original perspective input based upon my long years of
sailing
(wind-powered sailing), cruising and living aboard. I have a lot to
offer
but there is a small group of detractors led by one Bruce in Bangkok
who
would rather resort to insults and ad hominems than to address the
salient
points of my posts.

But, the way to overcome these kinds of distractions is to just
ignore or
killfile the distractions and off-topic crap and then to post
interesting
cruising-related material yourself.

You've fallen for another ID spoofer, Willie. The "Tuuk" to whom he
refers and isn't was a crazy guy from Thailand who spent his time in
rec.boats threatening to visit and beat up posters he didn't like. This
new "Tuuk" is just one of the regular ID spoofing morons that populate
rec.boats these days. He's trolling and he caught you.

My forum is not censored. I simply don't allow posters to insult other
posters.


But the moderator insults others at will.


"Jay" is still upset because I didn't "approve" his request for access.
There is no insulting of or by anyone in my little forum.


Jay doesn't get upset turdbreath. You are afraid to grant me access
because I would expose your lies. If ypu are so paranoid about it, grant
me observer access only. But maybe you have something to hide. We get it.




HarryK have proven himself to be a liar and a hypocrite. He posted here
today that he doesn't censor but only prohibits insults. In your case he's
prohibited your posts. He has admitted he never even gave you a chance to
see if you could adhere to the prohibition against insults. IOW HarryK lied.
But, what else is new?

Wilbur Hubbard




"Jay" is an obstreperous asshole. "Jay" isn't even his real handle; it's
a sockpuppet he uses in rec.boats. He doesn't post on recreational
boating or fishing subjects, but, instead, spends *all* of his time in
rec.boats insulting other posters. There's no reason to believe he'd
behave differently if I granted him access.
