That's so sad. *It could have been an informative group.


First, there are not many active posters in this usenet group.

Second, with as few posters as there are, very, very few are "boaters."
Among the rest are a handful who likely have never owned a boat. I can
think of a half dozen posters here who I cannot recall ever posting any
information about a boat they own or may have owned in the past. They
are only here to insult other posters or, in the case of one, to
encourage a certain psychotic poster to behave even more badly than he
regularly does.

I am a regular poster to two "moderated" boating discussion groups, and
an occasional poster on a third. I see no reason to put up boating posts
here, only to see the usual suspects attempt to trash them. The
moderated discussion boards are full of people who actually like boats
and like discussing boats and affiliated subjects.


Sure you are , you lying sack of ****.
