![]() "Dudley Henriques" wrote Personally, I've reached the point where for me, the crap on Usenet simply isn't worth my time. I come and go with little expectation of a positive result. If I happen to get a positive result, I simply consider that a good day and I'll converse with respectful Usenet posters. If I don't find that, I'll tell people to go **** themselves in a heartbeat! On the moderated forums, I know going in that I'll never have to resort to telling anyone to go **** themselves, and for me, that's important. You see, I don't particularly like telling people to go **** themselves. Agreed What we really need is a small group of reasonable people to act as moderators, here, on usenet. All we need to do is keep out the riff-raff, and the worst of the disrespect. It is all about respect, and that is a sign of the times. As I contemplate going back to having students at school next week, I have come to dread it, and there too, it is all about respect, and the lack of it. Lack of respect for others, their property, and even for themselves. If I was allowed he whack their little backsides when they needed it, 90% of the problem would disappear. It's a pity that we can't pound a little respect into this generation when they need it. But no, that isn't civilized, or some such crap. Anyway, I've wandered. Anyone want to be a moderator? -- Jim in NC |
