Bertie How does your trolling Mr. A. contribute to improving the newsgroup's signal to noise ratio? It doesn't. So you publicly admit that your intent in stalking Mr. A. is to negatively impact the quality of the newsgroup by lowering the newsgroup's signal-to-noise ratio? Nope. Are you capable of perceiving that your trolling negatively impacts the newsgroup's signal-to-noise ratio, or are you so self-absorbed with your own emotional issues, that you are blind to the negative impact your trolling causes? Are you so arrogant, that you feel that the selfish joy you seek by trolling is more important than the good of the newsgroup, and those fellow airmen among the readership of this newsgroup who freely give of their knowledge and experience out of a sense of camaraderie and goodwill toward their fellows? Are your true motives for lowering the newsgroup's signal-to-noise ratio a surreptitious attack to disrupt the dignity of this forum, and drive away the valiant and altruistic contributors just to prove you possess the power, all motivated by your self-perceived ineffectiveness and inferiority? You're a bigger person than that, aren't you? You ever work for Fox? No. Why would you imagine it would? Because a good netizen worthy of participation in this world's-most-egalitarian-forum strives to improve Usenet as part of the implicit licence granted to Usenet participants by the computer system owners who freely donate their valuable labor and computing resources for the noble cause that is Usenet. Usenet provides an opportunity for mankind to demonstrate our capacity for self-governance, the foundation of democracy. If instead we embrace anarchy and devolution, we pathetically, publicly, parade our low, uncivilized, brutish, feral and undignified ignobility before the world, and shame those praiseworthy creators of Usenet upon whose faith in the honorable capacity of mankind to act responsibly and enlightened it rests. So what's your point here? The point you seem incapable of grasping is that your off-topic, inane, badgering articles are beneath the dignity of humankind, not to mention your fellow airmen. But you're just trolling me now ... You;re not to smart, are you Larry? My head may be stuffed with straw, but fortunately I am smart enough not to resort to insults in a feeble attempt to demean those who expose my faults, for personal attacks only serve to reveal a lack of expressive ability and cognitive resources. But you're not smart enough to kill-file me even though I told you to months ago.. I prefer not to stick my head in the sand, thank you. And you occasionally contribute worthy content, that I might miss if I were to mask your articles from view. Go figure. Bertie The way I figure it, you are a bit of a coward to conceal your true identity behind a pseudonym when you attack other Usenet participants. Why do you lack the courage and honesty to stand tall and take responsibility for your actions? What do you fear? Are you emotionally inferior to those who find no necessity for hiding? Such malicious mischief cloaked in deceit is the mark of a simple child or a roguish robber. Is deceit and cowardice really part of your true nature? I prefer to think not, for you are a fellow airman, and I know you are capable of exercising desecration and responsibility as all airmen must. Well, then what's your problem? You haven't been paying attention, or you lack the reading comprehension skills necessary to understand the concepts I have provided for you. So let's all take this opportunity to put our personal, petty disagreements and prejudice feelings aside for the new year, and embrace forgiveness and fellowship from here on. Oh go **** yourslef Larry,. So you are so full of rage and indignation, that you are incapable of conducting yourself civilly. Very disappointing.... You don't like me, then killfile me or shut the **** up. It's not an issue of enmity or affection; it's all about the destruction you are perpetrating while cowering behind a false persona. Your trolling behavior is childish, and unbecoming an airman; I don't know whether to attribute it to emotional immaturity or the onset of dementia. You're a netkkkop, period. That's the beauty of Usenet, we are all free to express our opinions. There is no central controlling authority, no censorship, only the belief that mankind is capable of self-governance. Some participants are destructive, and some are constructive, but we _ALL_ deserve respect. You seem to be taking this opportunity to demonstrate your unworthiness to forego your petty emotional needs for the greater good of the other newsgroup participants. You know you're wrong, and your lack of a rational argument to support your actions, and your descent into profanity only serve to publicly reveal your pathetic inability to mount a credible defense for your cowardice and destructive behavior. Your pseudonym won't shield you from that. Bertie Please accept my sincere wish for a happy new year. |

Is that true? If so, does anyone know where I can find an official description of the new requirements? Searching the ICAO site pointed me to a zillion different pages. |

Hi,
In article , Bertie the wrote: Some just ask for it and they are extremely satisfying and unbelievably easy to wind up. Some ask for it and it sails over their heads. Some are just too scary to wind up. Some it just kind of fizzles out or i feel bad for doing it after. But with some it never even crosses my mind to wind them up. Hmm...I wonder which category you've put me into? Well, either 4 or 5. Usenet is different because there's no physical first impression. You'd have probably been 5 if i had met you in person. Hard to know though.. So, you either feel sorry for me, or it'd never have crossed your mind to wind me up? I suspect if you *had* met me in person, it is unlikely to have been the latter Andy |

Hi,
In article , Bertie the wrote: He he! Mebbe! Hard to know.. Indeed. I find that the impression I get of people from the Internet is almost certainly nothing like what they're like in real life... Is this where we all start becoming 'facebook' friends just to see what we look like? Andy |
