Wait! I know just where to turn to find it: rec.boast Ok JohnH. I think you owe me a toonie. I will accept two of your 'merican bucks... if you send them before they devalue any further. Two dollars will buy you a cupa at Mickey D's. Poor Chuck. He's become his own protest. If you are a senior at Micky D's, the cost is $0.27 to $0.54 |

But, as the coffee tastes like crap, it gets thrown out and the money was wasted anyway. Their new stuff, bolder, tastes like stronger crap. |

Good observation. Looking over the topic list for the last few months, that's all I find. "Poorly written purple prose advertorials." Several dozen a week. Very little gets by you, Harry. Chuck, I hope you realize you're seeing what jealousy hath wrought. |

There's only a couple of people left here, you among them, that I like and find interesting. The netcops have turned this newsgroup into a pile of steaming dung, suitable mostly for their overwrought and uncritical advertorials. Last we heard, the YoHo was being offered for sale. Assuming you found a buyer, that leaves you with "half a canoe" and some other assorted paddle boats (IIRC). Maybe you're posting less because you're fairly well out of boating these days? Should the NG emphasis ever shift back to personal attack, overwrought and uncritical political cut 'n paste, and unsubstantiated claims of personal wealth, prestige, and accomplishment- the crowd that such a change might generate will probably bring in a few people you will like and find interesting. So hang in there, Harry- there's hope for a return to the nasty old days you so enjoyed here and an accelerating trend among the majority to go there. Meanwhile, as long as you have introduced the thought that we should be critical of the quality of posts to the NG, I'm still looking for some evidence that your lobster boat exists outside of your imagination. Wait! I know just where to turn to find it: rec.boast Rec.boats is an unusual newsgroup. It is one of the oldest newsgroups on Usenet (along with alt.sailing.asa) and is unique in the respect that it has no charter. It's more of a free for all. One of it's best attributes in the past has been humor and although I don't always agree with Harry on some subjects, I've always found a light side in many of his posts. Personally, I enjoy the boating topics but, as I've got to know some of the virtual personalities of some of the participants, I've also enjoyed many of the off topic discussions and debates. Everything can be done to an excess of course and when it does it becomes obvious. Filters work well if some topics or those that indulge in personal attacks get to be too much for anyone. Point is ... your constant scolding, lectures and passing of judgment about how *you* think others should behave are just as annoying as an over done political post IMO. Some people here are masters at purposely raising the ire of others (trolls) and frankly, I consider you one of them at times when you do this. Prove me wrong and chill out. Post what you want and expect both praise and criticism. Stop worrying about everybody else and their behavior and methods. We can deal with it ourselves. Eisboch Let me see if I follow all of your points he It's a very good thing for the boating newsgroup to function as a chat room for the "virtual personalities" and you enjoy all of the OT discussions. Politically hot spuds are fine, at least for the first couple of exchanges before the personal remarks and name calling begin in earnest. In fact, you think posting just about anything here is OK and that everybody should be able to express an opinion, (as long as that opinion doesn't pertain to whether or not the OT political stuff and personal conversations are an asset to the newsgroup). You conclude your several paragraphs of personal preferences and opinions about what you think it is appropriate for me to post with an appeal to me to keep my personal preferences and opinions to myself. Did I miss anything important? |
