This group has been dysfunctional since the early days of the

the chaos has chased away a lot of good people over the years and they

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 ****.



Shutup, jackass... if we want your opinion we'll ask your MiniMe clone, Snottie.
