Anthony... snip


He will be here until he is ignored, and nobody responds to his
posts... and I fear that will never happen. I don't know why
people feel the need to respond, but respond, they do.


I agree.


I don't think there is much more time left until there are few left
to respond. Many have already left; more are leaving all the time.
Many more will follow.


Agree here too, however, people also check back to see if the
smoke has
cleared yet.

It is a pity to see a group lose their focus, all because of one
person.

Not exactly 1 person. Bertie & Mx have enough traffic to set up
their
own group.



I have my own group!

alt.fan.bertie-the-bunyip!



Cool. Any chance you and Anthony could wander off into the
sunset
somewhere?

Well, I can cross post to it, but I doubt Anthony will come. He never
even replies to my posts ;(



Really, though, if you don't know how to use akillfile, you really
should learn.

You are quite correct. Sadly, many enjoy poking trolls with a stick just to
hear 'em howl. Kinda sick in my opinion.

Like I said, I have killed Anthony. It is YOU I'm considering. On
one hand you seem to have genuine knowledge of aircraft and how to stay
alive in them. On the other hand, I have to wade through 30+ "You're an
idiot" messages to read anything you have to say. Maybe you could settle on
some code like "This is a message To/From Idiots", and that way the rest of
us could just filter the crap out.

I have to admit, even the "Idiot" posts have their moment...

From a recent thread:

"Is not."

"Is too."

"Is not."

"Is too."

"Did you just stamp your foot?"

There were instructions posted earlier this year (February, I believe) how
to killfile the eunich and any replies to her posts. It was specific to
Outlook

It was along the lines of:

if the eunich posts, mark the thread as ignored

change settings to not show ignored threads.

Many participants do not express an opinion. One should not assume that those
who yell the loudest are necessarily speaking for the silent majority.

Thanks, I remember seeing it at the time, but thought it would remove to
much. I'll re-examine it.

So killfile me.

Used to just use the Bunyip handle for flaming and another for making
"regular " posts, but now I'm too lazy to change my handle from one to
another.


I have to admit, even the "Idiot" posts have their moment...

From a recent thread:

"Is not."

"Is too."

"Is not."

"Did you just stamp your foot?"




I'm worth it.

Well, sometimes people actually have intelligent discussions in the wake
of his posts.

I studiously avoid that for that very reason.
