Actually, I'd venture to say that I'm this newsgroups foremost source for
info on the old Mercury inlines. My boat is besides the point, my marine
shop on Lake Harwell is however gathering steam.

Since I have not had an outboard since I was 17, I dont really follow those
threads. That probably explains why I dont "see" you.

I'm sure you would, and that's been your trouble here - you think anyone
really *cares* whom *you* killfile and why,

I post it so others can simply cut-n-paste it. I only post it to those who
complain about all the OT BS here. If you dont want to use it, fine, but
dont make that desision for everybody here.

you're not that important so
deflate your hat size.

Heh heh...talk about inflated heads...let me quote you...

"...I'm this newsgroups foremost source for
info on the old Mercury inlines."

Easy there big fella...

Further Chris, the whole concept of the killfile is the wrong approach
here - because except for less than a handfull of people, the ones that
post
OT are also some of the more informed boaters, they just seem to enjoy
killing each other over politics for amusement.

Not the point. The way I look at it is, if someone is too dumb, rude, and/or
inconsiderate enough to purposly post OT here, and disrupt the group, that
is not the type of person I want *any* advice from...period.

The real way to "fix" this
newsgroup is by using the FILTER and setting it up to hide/delete the OT
posts. This can be done quietly, easily. and without a lot of fanfare. And
when a political junkie decides to actually post something ON topic - it
gets through.

I do use filters as well, but I dont know what you mean when you say less
"fanfare".

You seem to enjoy making it "personal" which is why you've been
continually
attacked in here.

It is personal...that's what kill files are all about.

And being "attacked" here? I don't remember being "attacked" here. Unless
its being done by those already in my kill file, in which case, I couldn't
care less. Again, those people of such caliber, I don't care for anyway.

I like the list I'm getting now very much. When I see someone crying for
help because of all the BS one has to wade thru, I will continue to offer
help. I will also continue to point out those who I kill file.

Lastly, I find it very interesting people are so concerned about being kill
filed. I'm not ashamed of anything I've done here, but I still wouldn't be
offended if someone kill filed me...in fact...maybe that's what you should
do to me...since it appears you don't like hearing from me so much.

Take care.

No, when I speak about the "direct charge" inlines - it's Ex Cathedra.
That's not ego, it's just a fact of what I do.

Ding! Thus the H8.


I will also continue to point out those who I kill file.

To what end? You don't think people are smart enough to figure out who
annoys them enough to killfile them? That's how you come off sounding.

I wouldn't mind hearing from you if you had much more to talk about than
your killfile. And all the OT discussions that discussions of your killfile
have spawed over the years..... it's kind of a circle thing.

And all kidding aside, you WOULD like the Scream and Fly site....

Good for you!



And I too, don't need to feed my ego...I present just the facts as well.

There you go again, making wrong assumptions. I don't "hate" anyone...I just
don't care to 'listen" to anybody who doesn't have common courtesy, and
consideration for others. Is that really that hard for you to understand?



Again I have to ask...why do you care to whom I "listen" to?

I don't believe discussion *about* the group is off-topic. In fact, I see
nothing more on-topic than that type of discussion. It just like going to a
meeting, and taking some time to comment *about* the meeting place. Hardly
off-topic or out of line by any means...in fact...I would consider it
appropriate.



I will end this with one last query...you called me an "idiot" in your first
reply, which is fine with me...I couldn't care less what you think of me, or
how you came to that determination, but what I *do* take hard exception to,
is liars.



You sated I built my boat "...with daddy's money". Since I know that not to
be true, I also know you have no evidence to present. Would you care to
explain why you chose to make up that lie about my boat?

You miss my point. It's the fact that you feel the need to **announce** whom
you killfile that generates the H8. On three different levels. First, it
assumes that everyone else isn't smart enough to figgure out for themselves
who their own personal troublemakers are. Secondly, you're missing out (or
exploiting) the facet of human nature that would assume that people don't
really *want* to be killfiled. Therefore if your intent was *just* to "not
read" these people, you could do it in silence, spare feelings, and not come
off as just another "net nannie". And thirdly you do it in such a pompous
"above it all" manner that you come across more as "little Tommy Ray-gun"
standing on a big hill saying "I got YOU, and YOU, and YOU - that you come
across not as part of the community here. An outsider little kid just
looking for attention.


Again I have to ask...why do you care to whom I "listen" to?

I don't care whom you listen to, I do feel that your constant bleating
**about** your killfile is as disruptive to the overall forum and decorum as
the extant problems you claim to be interested in solving. Why can't you
just killfile in silence? It accomplises all your **stated** objectives.
Unless of course, getting extra attention is one of your background
objectives. Think......

I didn't make it up, I just *repeated* it.

It's been said here many times before. While it's possibly a lie, it's made
more credible in that you present as a full time OSU student as opposed to
someone out there actually in the workforce. And it also speaks to the fact
that you seem very sheltered as to how the "real world" works and how people
react to varied stimulus. Lastly, the boat itself has the "look and feel" of
an overly funded Science Fair project as opposed to a singular "grass roots"
effort. And coming full circle.... the boat itself has the "hey! come look
at me!!" flavor about it that I'm alleging your "Ill killfile YOU and YOU

Then maybe they should start following the rules, then there wouldn't be a

And how does this affect you again?

Naw. Since you think people don't want to be kill filed, don't you think its

I couldn't care less about attention, but I do like the rest of your
analogy.



And you mean there is a "community" here? Care to explain just who that is?
Are *you* speaking for the group...again? And if so, which group? The trolls
and OT posters, or those of us dedicated to boating?



I don't care whom you listen to, I do feel that your constant bleating
**about** your killfile is as disruptive to the overall forum and decorum
as
the extant problems you claim to be interested in solving.



I don't agree. When people see someone standing up, and openly attacking the
problem, that may give them the power to help, or do something as well.



Why can't you
just killfile in silence? It accomplises all your **stated** objectives.
Unless of course, getting extra attention is one of your background
objectives. Think......



I've already explained that.



Unless you build yourself a reputation as a "one trick pony". You remind
me
of the guy that goes to the meeting and then spends ALL NIGHT picking
apart
Roberts Rules of Order and fails to ever adress the core reason the
meeting
was assembled.



And you remind me of the little twerp who hangs around the "big dogs", in a
feeble effort to be part of the "team", even tho you're not wanted. You
remind me of that little yippee cartoon dog, jumping back and forth over the
bull dogs back, yipping "What are we going to do now Spike, what are we
going to do!?"


Think about what you are doing...



You are defending those who are wrong. I don't understand why you don't take
your fight to those who violate the rules here. You are on me because I'm
fighting them. Your actions make no sense at all.



I didn't make it up, I just *repeated* it.



You stated it. You didn't say "I heard it" or "someone said"...*you* said
it, and it was a lie, that makes you a liar.

It's been said here many times before.



Bull. I've never heard that before. But again, it may be coming from those
flunkies who are already kill filed, but if that's where you heard it, that
only shows me how ignorant you really are.



While it's possibly a lie, it's made
more credible in that you present as a full time OSU student as opposed to
someone out there actually in the workforce.



(yawn) I'm not a full time student. Are you of those idiots, who if left to
repeat lies long enough, you actually believe them? Or do you just simply
pull crap from your ass?



And it also speaks to the fact
that you seem very sheltered as to how the "real world" works and how
people
react to varied stimulus.



I'm not sheltered at all. Folks who break the rules get pointed out, and I
kill them...its that simple.



Again, you show your intelligence by defending the folks in the "real world"
who regularly, continually, and purposely disrupt the group, and don't
follow rules.



Lastly, the boat itself has the "look and feel" of
an overly funded Science Fair project as opposed to a singular "grass
roots"
effort.



Thanks! Ill take that as a compliment. As a high-performance boat builder
for 25 years, I have always prided myself on attention to detail,
professional work, and buying the best materials. I'm glad the boat turned
out so well...I took turbine maintenance, and theory classes before starting
the project, and those schoolings have obviously paid off.



And coming full circle.... the boat itself has the "hey! come look
at me!!" flavor about it that I'm alleging your "Ill killfile YOU and YOU
and YOU!" posts have.



LOL! I hardly ever talk about my boat here...were do you get this crap?



The red boat was an R & D project...I don't take it out at peak hours, and
in fact, much prefer a lazy day around the lake in the ski boat these days.
But so what about folks who are the "look at me" type? Many, many boaters
build their boat as an extensions of their personalities, and that comes
with big motors, and loud paint jobs. Again...so what? "Look at me" folks
are everywhere, and it comes in many flavors...cars, boats, planes,
motorcycles, houses, and even clothes. It's also a sign of success in many
cases. It seems to me the only people who ever complain about the "look at
me" crowd, are those who are not in it, and jealous.



You need to quit being a puppet, and start thinking for your self. You need
to step back, and take a look at what you're doing. You are defending the
problem here, because you are either too scared, or too dumb to separate
yourself from all the political "big dogs" you are trying to run, and be
chummy with.



Now take a hard look at the name of this group...now you think...
