Neb, This is the second time that you have posted under a fake name pretending to be somebody else. Your really this stupid. I am telling you that if you do it again, compaints will be filed against you. Go right ahead. ME........ IP addy - 161.184.141.129 Edmonton Alberta Canada the home of tasty Alberta beef and a Province that is debt free. NEB........ posting from Ohio State University as far as I can tell. AND YOU DENNIS ARE DUMBER THAN A STUMP. Now if you really wish to contact the TELUS corporation and complain because I have been posting under the same static IP addy 161.184.141.129 for the past six years, why Dennis you go right ahead. Don't forget to remind them that my monthly account is paid up to date as always. |

Hey all, In case you are wondering, this guy is a troll. I filed a complaint against him and I learned that it is not the only complaint either. TO THE GROUP The other day Dennis cut someone named NEB a new asshole, for posting a binary to this newsgroup. Dennis talked about netiquette. So I pointed out to Dennis that the very same day (Sunday Aug 15) that he himself had forgotten about netiquette by making a four line comment and then quoting over two hundred lines of text. In other words he failed to trim his posts. Instead of going oooops... MEA CULPA like most people would do including myself when I've made mistakes... He decided to argue the point and insisted that I provide him with at least two occaissions when he had forgotten to trim a post. In other words Dennis feels that he can chastise NEB for one transgression, (posting a binary to a text only group) but If I chastise Dennis for failing to trim his post then I am supposed to supply at least two examples. Isn't that kinda like do as I say not as I do. Then today for whatever reason Dennis decided to take another swipe at poor old NEB and in the process accussed NEB of taking him to task over his failure to trim his post. I answered Dennis at that stage, for his stupidity in not being able to seperate myself, whoever I am, in Edmonton Alberta Canada. from someone obviously posting from a university site in the US of A. And at that point instead of gritting his teeth and going OOOppps MEA CULPA for not realizing that he was talking about two different people regarding two entirely different subject (threads) he decided to threaten to complain to my ISP. I told him to go ahead and told him that he had to be dumber than a stump if he couldn't read the headers and realize that I and NEB are two different people, in two different countries. And as you can see Dennis has spent a frustrating few hours going through GOOGLE and checking out my posting history. TO THE GROUP ----- I am who I am and for the past six years I have posted to this group and others under a variety of names many of which I choose at random as I am making my post. I don't hide that fact - And considering that my IP address is static, and has always been 161.184.141.129, nobody could ever complain that I am trying to be anonymous. That static IP address doesn't lie. Now in a childish fit of exasperation Dennis has done his Googling, made his complaint ( supposedly ), and now can't wait to tell all his friends in the group about the variety of newsgroups that I have posted into and the different nicknames that I have used over the years. TO THE GROUP ------- Dennis feels it's okay for him to complain about someone like NEB but doesn't like it when someone holds him up to the light of day. So by complaining to my ISP he shows you the people in this group just how childish he is willing to be in his attempt to try to squirm around the fact that he himself is guilty of poor netiquette the other day just as much as poor old NEB was. And not only that folks but he is so stupid that he can't even get his attributes right and figure out who is making what comments and from what country. Now that you have shown the world how immature you are Dennis, let me tell you in one word what my ISP will do if in fact you actually complained........ NOTHING. You see Dennis as a paying customer for six years I don't think my ISP is going to want to turn down my monthly payment for something as trivial as your complaint. Especially in light of the fact that every three months their main competitor in this neck of the woods phones me, and asks for my business. TO THE GROUP ------- I'm sure you have all been reading this thread with baited breath, after all it's about the most exciting thing to happen to this group in months. But lets face it, Dennis got caught with his hand in the cookie jar and has been trying all afternoon to squirm out of the facts of the matter, which are clearly available for all of you regulars and lurkers to read. I'm sure we are all having a good chuckle over it..... That is everyone except Dennis. So Dennis ------ You got caught in your own words, and argueing the issue doesn't change the facts, so GROW UP and start acting like a mature adult. Trust me Dennis you will feel much better in a few days, and I will still be here from time to time posting under whatever name I choose from the same IP addy 161.184.141.129 the same as always. That's life, deal with it. |

AND YOU DENNIS ARE DUMBER THAN A STUMP. Sounds like I should continue to digitally sign all of my posts to this group to eliminate the confusion in the future. I can see how someone with a non-S/MIME capable client might interpret the cleartext signature as "binary". The issue with binaries though is their massive size and S/MIME signatures are smaller than the average post from "The OTHER Kevin in San Diego" which I do enjoy reading. Considering the small size, it shouldn't pose a measurable problem - especially since I mostly lurk here - unless I'm trying to ask helicopter pilots how to deal with the FAA when I video tape a crash or something. And I'd also like to point out that NNTP "abuse" complaints for every ISP I've ever seen require that the newsgroup charter specifically prohibit the behavior that is considered abuse. There is no "rec.aviation.binaries" newsgroup that I am aware of - and in this case it is customary (in the case of large files such as images) to warn folks and ask if they mind in advance. S/MIME signed emails should not evoke fears of some slippery slope where people will start posting images, flight simulator add-ons, and DVD rips to the newsgroups. People should really be able to deal with digital signatures by now. They are nothing new to Usenet since over 2.5 million posts have been digitally signed to date. I've posted hundreds myself over the past few years with only a handful of objections - largely from people who simply didn't understand and like to "mother hen" everyone. |

wrote in message ... Neb, % Ad-hominem attacks snipped % 2) The fact that you have the gall to complain about my 7 lines of signature when you sent 60-70 for a signature really amazes me - They're different types of signatures completely. Mine is for security, yours is to complain about foreigners stealing jobs you apparenly think you could or would want to do. Notwithstanding your Anti-American comments about my signature. It'd be funny if I wasn't an American, wouldn't it. :P America is great because we absorb the rebels and intellectuals from other countries. Chances are your own ancestors were immigrants at some point, so it seems silly to me to object when people apply to LEAGALLY work in the US. You might find this to be an interesting read on the subject: http://www.reason.com/0407/fe.bl.truths.shtml 3) You said I replied to a post with over 200 quoted lines. False. 4) My return email address is not hidden. It may be obfuscated to prevent spambots from getting it, but not in a way that humans can't understand how to modify it to get the real address. It's a pain in the butt - and considered poor netiquette by many. 5) As for the charter of this newsgroup, do you see the word "BINARY" or "BINARIES" in the name of this group? Did you see anything in the charter that said "binaries allowed"? If not, then its a TEXT ONLY newsgroup. Says you. The newsgroup charter takes no position on the matter - nor does the rec.aviation charter if we assume a cascading approach. And even if it did, we should weigh the advantages to knowing a message isn't spoofed or altered with the disadvantages of the meager increase in file size. An S/MIME signature isn't anywhere near the size of a GIF or JPG - and my signed message was smaller than some of the regular posts to the group. And so far this thread has balooned to 5 times the size of a single digital signature. Lastly, Neb, I will point out that this is a TEXT-ONLY group about rotorcraft. Doesn't say that in the charter. However, if you need an education on netiquette, then this is not the place to get it. Obviously, given your record. Usenet-wise, you're a low-time pilot with an authoritarian streak. For the FOURTH time - if a 6kb post makes you flip out, plonk/killfile me. I can only assume you don't know how at this point. However, if you violate netiquette rules on the massive scale that you did, then you are going to hear about it. Hmmm... A single 6kb post... "Massive scale"... |
