It is indeed a boating newsgroup but we may get a bit off topic.

If you need advice, have questions or want to exchange info, there's
plenty of folks here who probably share your interest.

If you don't like the ot, pay no attention or learn to use filters.

That **** is getting old, Jim. You never asked that question before you
bought you used runabout. Now you use that same phrase so much it's

Kevin,
Why is JimH asking a question that is designed to encourage an on topic
thread childish? His question is not a troll, nor is it JimH trying to
insult the person who made the observation that rec.boats is mostly about
politics.

I'm not Kevin. But, do this for a little test. Google back to before
JimH bought his used runabout for about the same timeframe prior to him
buying it versus the time frame since he's owned it. Now, how many
posts do you see prior that asked the question about boat ownership?
Got it? Now, do the same thing post boat buying. What are the results?
It's simple, before he owned a boat, he never asked that question.
Since then, because of his childish nature, he asks it almost daily,
and sometimes several times daily.

I"m not Kevin. But, I'd like to ask a question. Why does my question to
you seem "amazing"? Do you deny the fact that you only started asking
that particular question AFTER you bought a boat? Now, don't you think
it makes you look quite silly and childish when before you never asked
that, and now that you own one, you ask it daily, and sometimes several
times a day?

This group used to be primarily about boats. Now it's rarely about
boats, and most of the boaters have skidaddled in search of a more sane
and civil environment.

Imagine the grounds of an asylum. The inmates are let out everyday to
exercise, and in one corner, gathered all around a bench, is a group
that fantasizes they're out on a boat instead of trapped in an asylum.
Once in a while they will even tell tales about their imaginary
bench-boat, or some boat they used to own, or some boat they hope to
buy, and a few of them might actually go boating on a day they're
furloughed from the asylum.

The customary topics of conversation around the bench-boat include how
to save the world through the proper choice of a political candidate,
how the world is going to hell due to the ill-advised choice of a
political candidate, how liberals are all trying to destroy the moral,
social and economic fabric of the United States, how conservatives are
all trying to impose their personally hypocritical moral code and lack
of business ethics on everyone else, and so forth.

The *real* reasons the inmates gather around the bench are because
there is nothing else in life to do, and they are so entangled in
mutually obsessed love-hate relationships that they cannot get through
a day without interacting with the object of their love-hate. Some hang
around the bench all day, waiting for one of the other inmates to say
*anything*, on any subject, so they can immediately lash out with the
crappy personal remark they have been crafting since the day prior.

The happiest guys in the asylum are those who believe this is somehow
the "real world", or at least more real or more important than the
dreadfully dark and dreary isolation of a drafty, solitary cell.

Fact is, darn nearly everybody left here is nuts. Knuts, gnuts, nuts.
Self included.
Anybody searching for a "boating forum" would be nuts to think a bunch
of idiots gathered around a bench and pretending it's a boat is the
best forum they will find. Anybody here who can't figure out there
isn't any boating content left and that the most prolific posters have
even stopped trying to play the "it's about boats" game in our corner
of the asylum's rec. yard is nuts. Anybody here who enjoys and thrives
on the wicked, sick, and twisted
vitriol passing between the inmates and patients on a personal level is
nuts.

I know where there's a pair of bolt cutters hidden under a bush, and a
spot along the fenceline where the guards don't often patrol. If I
wasn't one of the nuts, I'd grab those bolt cutters and get the heck
out of here. It's tough when the meds wear off just enough that you can
realize where you're at- you sort of have to envy the guys who remain
blind to the reality of the situation or even thrive on the collective
illness.

So if you're looking for a good boating forum- forget this one. Twenty
different people will advance 15-20 different names and reasons why
rec.boats is in the toilet, but in the final analysis (and for whatever
reason) it is. Unless you enjoy life in the asylum toilet, get the heck
out before you get caught up in the vortex circling the bowl. :-)

Do you have a boating question? We get off topic here because we're bored
sometimes. The endless debate is the reason why we're some of the brightest
people on earth (except for a few who obviously don't know who they are).

You have been a major player in the off-topic vitriol, Chucky Boy. I was
outta this toilet for over 2 years when I checked the archives to see
what had happened to the NG. I was a bit miffed to discover that you'd
been issuing invectives my way...and even making "Skipper" the brunt of
your jokes. I returned only to set the NG straight about YOU.

I'll be outta here soon enough. It might just be time for YOU to take
your annual hiatus. Its been long since you've done anything to correct
the main problem of this NG (Harry Krause). Your lying and belittling
insults to fellow NG contributors have not been a positive contribution
either.

And has been pointed out by several contributors, you are far too slow
to offer obviously needed apologies. Is it your arrogance or stupidity?

You've certainly done your share by using 100 different aliases,
including those of people already posting here.
What do you think of Fritz, who never, ever posts anything on topic?
What do you think of JimH, who thought nothing of posting lies, name
calling, vile posts time after time?
What do you think of Herring, who, for weeks, posting nothing but
"Harry, you're a ****ing liar"?

Do you think those above examples have made the newsgroup a better, or

But you end up reading the replies to your posts at the bottom so I don't
understand your point.

Do as you want but it does make it easier to follow a thread when everyone
posts in the same way. This NG bottom posts so you should do the same.

As Kevin said, there is no big effort in moving the cursor to the bottom
when replying. ;-)
