I am offended by the way Harry keeps changing his name in Usenet.


Well, too bad - pick up the shattered pieces
of your shattered life, and move on. Usenet
is not for the faint of heart (but WebTV is)
No offence, but really, thats the way it is. (*really*)

Sorry as I don't normally get into these type OT discussions but just

had
to
ask.

Harry, why do you keep changing your email name. Seems if you were a

legit
supporter of the group you would want people to know your address and

would
keep just one.


My friend, one thing you need to realize about Usenet,
is that you don't *have* to be a "supporter" in an
un-moderated Usenet newsgroup. Yea, its possible
that there are people that don't like hum, but it would
be elitism to try and act like everyone should follow
some rules in an unmoderated Usenet newsgroup.
"Should" they behave, stay on topic, and be "nice"
to others? Well, maybe, (and many - people are
generally nice by nature). should they play by your
rules, or rules that *you* think they should play by?
Hell no - don't be so myopic, shallow, or elietist.
Just ignore it, and don't let it get to you.




Obviously you are trying to get around message blockers. I have to add

a
different name for you to my blocker almost every day.

Mr. Wizard,
Do you think only an idiot would be offended if someone kept changing their
name?
