Solution to the politics polluting the NG?
 
I urge everyone to add each author who EVER participates in a
policical thread to their kill file.

Yeah!!! String the *******s up!!!


That's a little severe.

Marc's server must work a lot differently than mine. Apparently, he's been
aching to start or participate in some or all of the boating related threads
and must be getting some message like "Sorry, but your contribution to
rec.boats has been rejected because the total supply of electrons has been
consumed by off-topic posts."

There seem to be a lot of people who come here and consider rec.boats a
spectator sport. I can see where they get grumpy if the content isn't 100% as
advertised. Based upon what we're charging at the door, maybe somebody ought to
give the disgruntled folks double their ticket price back?

I still say, if you don't like what you see, help make it what you want it to
be. Through contribution, rather than whimpering and griping.

Actually Marc has been an avid contributor to this NG for many years, perhaps as far
back as 1998. Try a google search before you generalize and insult someone about a
legitimate concern of theirs Chuck.

I can not believe that anyone would want rec.boats to be about boats. The
fun is in telling Gould he is wrong about any off topic thread he posts to.

PS Chuck , you are wrong.

I finally figured it out, you're Karen of Oz toating a new male moniker and
a way shorter composition style!!!

Whew, it took a long time to figure it out but now I know the truth.

Man, I'm relieved.

Medication has kicked in hey jps??

Yes he is much shorter but at least he & I actually write something of
our own instead of endless pastes from a magazine or the newspapers.

Why can't you blokes just accept that a consistent near 50% of all
people in western democracies have different political views?? It
doesn't make either side stupid or "bad" it's just democracy at work, so
sit back & let it work. It's not perfect 100% of us agree on that but
till mankind figures out something better it's the best system we've
found so far.

I'm not offended being mistaken as Bill, however I suspect he is:-)

I wondered if the 'new nastier' Jim was actually Snipper...er.Skipper.


I am, however, completely convinced that Dennice the Menace Compton has
reemerged as right-winger "Jim."

Reasonable question. It's the word choice and sentence construction that
give Dennis away. Snippy would be up Harry's arse a whole lot more.

jps,
You are way off base. I am not attacking Gould, I find him to be very
reasonable and normally very civil. I am just here to have fun, and to try
my best not to discuss boats and keep the topics off topic. Since you and I
are here for the same reason, I thought we should be friends.

Damn, thought I had it. It was how he has been constantly going after
Chuck. I know that's one of your passions.

Jim is Dennis Incontinent? I suppose I should pay more attention,
but...why?
