The other side of this coin is that if you use ISPs that have a specific
TOS, then you either conduct yourself within those TOS or risk the
consequences of stepping outwith them. I'm sure you'd agree that there is
something to be said for making an informed choice, and taking responsiblity
for one's choices. In short, if you're going to push the envelope with
people you believe will netcop you, while using an ISP that may be
sympathetic to their netcopping, then it's your own lookout. You're blaming
them for your own errors.

Like I said to LP, there *are* rules, whether we like it or not. The
Databasix people evidently have a TOS that is rather different from the
typical commercial ISP, but even they must place limits on what their users
can do, to the extent that offenders will get booted if they place the
service at risk. A couple of years ago, my own ISP was doing too little
about open relays connected to its servers - it was becoming a serious spam
source and notice was served that it had to clean up its act wthin a given
period of time or it would get booted off the net by means of its peering
partners withdrawing their connections (I believe other interested parties
who might otherwise become peering partners were also involved).

I'm sure Databasix aren't into so much 'freedom' that they'll risk getting
themselves isolated from the net. I'm willing to bet that they don't
include, for instance, mass spam mailings of kiddie porn or snuff movies in
their definition of 'freedom of speech'. If the usenet server-providing
community is willing to serve notice of a death sentence on one of the UK's
biggest ISPs, then I don't think they'd have much compunction about
disconnecting what, I assume, is comparatively small fry.

There are always rules, Neal. They might not be clear-cut, or consistent in
all environments, but they're always there in one form or another. The trick
is know what they are and to play your game within them. If you don't, you
get shafted sooner or later.


I'm a patient man. I waited and bided my time hoping they would
get bored and go away.


You kept running risks vis-a-vis your conduct and that allowed by your
ISP(s). You were responsible for that conduct, and you therefore took the
risk.


"They" did not cross post to get the flonkers involved. Show
me the post where I cross posted to do so, please.


If I'm in error regarding this, then I apologise. I confess that I've found
this episode insufficiently interesting to read everything in detail,
certainly not to the extent of doing research into who cross-posted
precisely what, and when.

To be frank, this episode has been annoying and disruptive. I don't come in
here to wade through piles of **** just because you keep treading on the
wrong side of the line when there are people willing to grass you up for
doing so - that's not my concern, and it's not my problem. As a general
rule, I don't killfile. I object to being admonished to waste my time
engaging in unneccessary computer admin, killfiling disruptor after
disruptor, just because a few people can't behave themselves, or can't play
the game by the (ISP) rules they choose and accept when they take on a
connection service. I've done mass killfiling before, but I'm very
disinclined to do it again. I have better things to do with my life than
clean other people's **** out of my face. My objection to people who
deliberately disrupt, and then tell me to remove some of whatever amount of
life I have left to get rid of them, is complete and absolute.

Your ISP's rules, your behaviour, your ****-up. You can sit and justify your
latest reaction to yourself all you like, but you'll never convince me.
Having given the foregoing your most careful consideration, would you care
to elucidate your position on personal responsiblity as it applies to you in
this context? How would that elucidation sit with your views on the matter
in the context of good seamanship? And what about within the context of your
general philosophy of life? I ask that last question because I gather that
you see good seamanship, and the attitudes it enshrines, as inextricably
linked to one's philosophy on life itself.


Those monitoring my
posts were aware of the netcops and LP crossposting
was an after-the-fact situation.


You better tell LP that the ego-feed isn't all hers, then: "What brought
these posters over here is me cross-posting KATY's posts to people who
believe in freedom of speech."

As I said to LP in another post, all we really have here is personas.
Outside of those we've met in real life, we don't really know the person
behind the poster. In spite of that, I've often wondered who I would go

for
a sail with if I ever found myself on the other side of the pond. For all
his invective, Neal was one of them - but not in the present climate.


Good post, Wally.

Neal is so totally full of it, he's leaking from the years.

He claims that I've been netcoping him for years, and that I've bragged
about it. However, he's unable to show a single post with me doing that.
He's a liar. Nothing new.

I can't speak to what Katy has or hasn't done. Certainly, if she did rat him
out to his ISP, he deserved it. I have no problem with that.

Is this about right?

Wally,

Some information you do not have that is skewing your thoughts is
Haight and Ganz have been netKKKoping me for over five years.
Both have a history of complaining to my ISPs and attempting to
get me tossed. Both brag about doing so.

I'm a patient man. I waited and bided my time hoping they would
get bored and go away. They didn't. So I waited till the time was
right. I used the fact that my news server, Individual.net was
going commercial April 1 and I was declining to pay for it. I
signed up on Databaxis and was welcomed. I doubt there
is a better service anywhere. They have their priorities straight.

My baiting Haight and Ganz and my goading them into revealing
their activities has nothing to do with the flame war between Katy
and LP. It only has the timing happenstance of Individaul net
going commercial. All conclusions you based on my relationship
with LP are erroneous. Believe me, that woman can and does
fight her own battles. She knows what a flame war is and
does not resort to netKKKoping no matter the length and
bitterness of the flame war. She is based in reality unlike
Haight and Ganz.

"They" did not cross post to get the flonkers involved. Show
me the post where I cross posted to do so, please. LP is a late
comer and has little to do with my dealings with Haight and
Ganz. They are netKKKops and what you see going on is the
result of their admitting to be netKKKops while netKKKop
haters were tuned in and there is no other reason for it.

originality whereby you just called Jon a HOMO for post after boring
post after boring post after boring post after ......

Don't take it as an attempt to be your conscience. Take it as a

Thom , since when do you predispose yourself to be my conscience in regards

If I have a disagreement with anyone of the people here... what gives you
the right of deciding that I am wayward and you are on tangent?? I think
that attitude is a bit condescending and ill informed.

I believe Sir that you will find I have treated you with courtesy and

If by some leave you cannot find it in yourself to return the courtesy...
then Sir ... I'm afraid that your tenure of age and self deluded grandeur

Take Heed...... I'm in no mood with the recent subject matter here to take

either provide an explanation or an apology!

What you have provided so far is abject interference in a private dispute of

since you deemed it important to involve yourself... pick a side. join

I'll leave it to you..... understand who has treated you with civility to
