What happened to the newsgroup?
 

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.

Looks like he "caught" the anonymous stalker, too. LOL! But, that's neither
here nor there, IMO. What if somebody takes a "spoofer" seriously? Maybe
they might just add some serious input? When people like you attempt to
marginalize them don't you think that might be motivation for them to
disrupt instead of stay on-topic?

LOL! A great example of beauty being in the eye of the beholder. When you
don't allow insults you set yourself up as judge, jury and jailor of what
exactly is an insult, you play the role of tyrant. And, then you have the
NERVE to say that is not censorship? Harry, you are a HOOT! Remove the log
from your own eye before you worry about the splinter in somebody else's.

I haven't had to "censor" a single post or poster. The rule is posted
and no one has violated it.

We now have more actual boaters as "members" than rec.boats has. We
might have more actual boaters than rec.boats.cruising.

Sorry to say I can't disagree with that last statement of yours. Here in RBC
we have yours truly, WayneB and Joe from time to time. We three the only
real cruisers posting any more. But, on second thought, Joe is no cruiser so
that makes only two real cruisers left. Well, make that two and a half real
cruisers as Capt. Skippy of the "Flying Pig" is a part-time cruiser who
spends about half his life on the hard doing blister repairs.

The remainder of those posting are armchair cruisers who would rather talk
about Ohms, volts, amps and circuits, televisions, refrigerators, satellite
receivers, cell phones, boat yard repairs, the ins and outs of hull
blisters, living extended periods of time at a foreign dock, coffee, and so
forth - anything and everything BUT cruising.
