Most of what you fellows do, 24-7, is either fling juvenile insults, discuss subjects that have nothing to do with any aspect or boating, or act like idiots. Because of you and your dwarfs, I simply gave up on this place as a forum for boating discussions, and I freely admit I show up mainly to watch the aberrant behavior of you and your buddies. If all you did was "watch", a good chunk of the problem would go away. You don't "watch". You (and others) pounce upon certain individuals regardless of the subject of their posts or to whom they are addressed. The only way to restore rec.boats to something other than a personal insult free-for-all would be for everybody to retire the past, forget about old issues and conflicts, and post as if all were meeting for the first time. Problem is, it would require 100% participation and that just isn't going to happen. Eisboch tell you what, Richard, as an old Westvillian to an aging Amityite, you work assiduously on getting the seven dwarfs to behave and I'll work on the rest. how's that? No thanks. It would be like trying to solve a Catch-22. *I* can't fix it. *You* can't fix it. But if all the participants were seriously motivated and committed to reviving rec.boats to it's former glory, it can be done by simply resisting the urge to post idiotic claims/counterclaims. It can't be "my" rules .... "your" rules or anybody else's "rules". Eisboch Well, then, I go back to my original post on this to you...that as a boating newsgroup, this place is lost, and that I show up mainly to watch the aberrant behavior of the seven dwarfs and (as you mentioned) to crap on one of their heads from time to time. None of the seven, so far as I can tell, has the slightest interest in boating related subjects or, if they do, they seem incapable of making any but the most empty headed of posts (e.g., I took my kid wakeboarding yesterday, or, I took my 93 grandchildren on a cruise). So... Harry, your statement, "I show up mainly to watch aberrant behavior...", is belied by the sheer quantity of attack posts you make here. I am willing to make you a deal. I will make no posts on Chuck's Island if you make no more than one more post here, in answer to this one. Look what you'd have to gain! Deal. Not that you had anything to add, boating-wise, there or here. |
