Again, you are failing to get the point. It wouldn't be so bad, if
Chuck ruled his rec.boats kingdom with an even hand. The trouble is, he
doesn't. If it's one of his buds, life is good, they can post whatever
whenever. If not, then you instantly get ****ed on.

I disagree with your assesment, for almost a year Chuck has been
emphasizing the importance of keeping the inflamatory posts out of the
NG, without any bias. He does have a tendency to highlight those who
seem to be contributing the greatest noise to signal ratio, but does not
have a list of "buds".

What do you think about posting political post, in a political NG and
using rec.boats to discuss boats and non inflamatory posts? You and I
both know that politics and religion in rec.boats will always end up in
a long boring flamefest.
