If you really think this plea will have any effect, you're delusional.

Okay, that one set me off.

The irony of applying the word 'delusional' to a critic of the manic!

The OP was not a critic, it was a plea. My response was not intended to
to be a critic on to worthiness of the plea, just the effectiveness of
it. Any one posting any message that says something like... "Could
everybody PLEASE not post this that or the other thing?", would have
received a similar response from me. If you think any such plea will
have any effect on posters, you are not just delusional, you are
pathetically delusional.


Oh the critic is the bad guy, rebelling against the right and proper
wants of this news group. He can't think straight, imagining things.
Right...

'Delusional', huh? Looks like a spit couched in hateful cynicism;
would be easily seen, if it weren't for the lack of clear motive. So
what is it? Just plain evil?

Cynicism? More like realism, such pathetic pleas will never be useful.


His postings are spamming up this group to no end.

While the posts you are referring to are undesirable, I'm not sure
"spam" is the right word for what you are talking about.

You're so discerning. So what is the right word?

I don't know but if you label every piece of undesirable email-type of
communication spam, you devalue the meaning of the word.




"Instruction"?
Little is resolved in his threads.

Again my previous post didn't even attempt to address the worthiness of
the posts by the subject of this thread. However I will say that while
his contributions seem to be pretty worthless, I have learned from some
of the other posts in those treads.



Some just like to argue, so they have Mxsmanic. Some like to watch
others argue, so they have him & this news group. The rest of us get
little use out of that parasitic relationship.

Then you only have one logical recourse, ignore any such postings. No
other course of action (short of killing someone or physically
destroying their ability to post) will have any effect and once again if
you think . . . never mind I think I made my point already.
