Why I'm dumping rec.boats.cruising.
 
1) too many ignorant subscribers
2) too many off-topic posts
3) too much trash talk
4) people here are losers
5) most people don't even know what sailing is, they have pitiful little
motor boats, I've been to the rec.boats.cruising picture site. If you
liars can cruise in those ugly tiny little runabouts then you're
dreaming. There were maybe three or four boats shown that one would be
able to cruise in.
6) the most boring subscribers I've ever seen in any group.

Good riddance to all of you ******s.

Gee, I'm kinda bummed. I enjoy some of your more nutty postings. The one
about the cost of owning a boat ..
That was particularly funny...

How about changing your name, coming back as Pedrick P Poofinghouse,
Yachtsman.

As Pedrick would say "don't be dull, old man, just get another drink".

Reasons why I stay at rbc

1. Wilbur/Neal is leaving (removing one ignorant subscriber)
2. Interesting questions and people
3. Group is active with lots of different POVs

I eliminate the trash talk and off topic posts by deleting any thread
that gets over 30 posts long, as IME, nothing useful is said after
that point (unless one of the people posting is me of course)

Depends on where the ******s and wankees live.

Certainly you've heard of the American League Baseball team the New York
Wankees.

Americans are quite fond of picking up foreign words and phrases and
employing them as our own.

On yer bike, mate!

Thirty posts long? You have way more patience than I have. Anything useful
seldom gets posted beyond ten messages in a thread.


Except for this thread, of course.

You've disqualified yourself by using your own criteria.

So listen closely Wilbur. This might help you find a new home. Try
subscribing to the newsgroup alt.whining.offtopic.crybabies and let us
know how well you fit in with the rest of the persecuted.
