On Aug 14, 5:57*am, "Viperdoc" The ignore approach has been
advocated, but there will always be someone who takes the bait, and this starts the endless cycle again. Sad isnt it ? Agree 101 % that the attention starved doofus would just go away if no one responded. I simply offered the alternative, which is Pilots of America, and other boards, that are actually focused on aviation related topics, and not Anthony. Im gonna respectfully disagree on the POA argument. I have made a few passes through that board (And others) and here is what I have noticed. First, this seems to be a close knit group of mostly East Coast pilots who all get together on occasion . While this is good for them, for the rest of us it amounts to a large quantity of non aviation related "Small talk" amongst aquantances that wouldnt hold anyone elses intrest. Second, the level of expertertise and experience over there seems to be quite a bit lower than over here. Once again, this is good for small talk but if you want meaningfull aviation discussion you might keep looking. You can post just about any response you want on POA no mater how inaccurate as long as you dont flame or use expletitives . In fact, they have their own versions of MX over there. They are the ones who know anything about everything and a couple of them sugest or imply much more experience in much bigger airplanes than what they actually have, just like our well known troll. Take a look at the post counters and you can see members with thousands of posts and many of the high post count members also have the least meaningful (Aviation wise) content. I am begining to think that it is just the nature of these groups. FB |

The value of POA is that Anthony isn't there and wouldn't be tolerated. He
single handedly is primarily responsible for the demise of this group. |

He single handedly is primarily responsible for the demise of this group. Sorry, Doc -- gotta disagree there. This group could've easily withstood a hundred years of MX-types -- but it only took a few months for the more vitriolic trolls (Bertie and Maxwell) to completely destroy it. Whatever you blame its demise on, you're right on regarding Pilots of America. It's like a breath of fresh air over there, full of helpful, knowledgeable, friendly and respectful pilots and learned conversation about piloting. In fact, it smells just like this newsgroup used to smell, before the trolls decided to wallow here. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 Ercoupe N94856 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I agree with Viperdoc that MX is responsible for the demise of this group. Atkielski is a cancer. He admits he's been trolling for decades, and he is very good at it. He chooses his words very carefully, with the sole purpose to irritate. He's a selfish little prick with no absolutely no redeeming value. Bertie and Maxwell are simply secondary infections. When someone dies from cancer, a secondary infection (or heart failure, or whatever) is what kills them. Without Atkielski poisoning these groups, Bertie and Maxwell would have never thrived. |

Anthony has become boring, engagements with him are without resolution, so I will let him hang in peace, or pieces. |

... Anthony has become boring, engagements with him are without resolution, so I will let him hang in peace, or pieces. I've taken to replying to him via email (as was the original intent if usenet) . He has yet to respond, so I always get the last word. It's a refreshing change. |

He is a participant and an instigator, but without others cooperating the endless arguing over meaningless detail would not ensue. Atkielski is a cancer. He admits he's been trolling for decades, and he is very good at it. He chooses his words very carefully, with the sole purpose to irritate. Probably true. So, knowing that, when one feels that they are getting nowhere with him it can be your choice to take the high road and quit communicating rather than resort to the tedious back and forth that almost always takes place instead. It's the classic example of wrestling with a pig - those who participate always come out looking worse than the instigator. I gotta tell ya, as a fellow pilot I am sometimes embarrased by what is said on this NG by other pilots while they try to get Mx to admit he is wrong or somehow made a mistake. |

I agree it takes the participation of others, but if he never came along, I honestly believe this group would not have dried up and blown away. |
