Are some people reading this group really that stupid? Clogging the group? Too many messages? (give me a break, the group is so light compared to what it used to be and compared to many others) Topic too dominant! It's like people want to be thought-police: "go somewhere else if you want to discuss this or that"; "don't talk about this"; "too much discussion of that sim."; etc. Thank you, we can all decide for ourselves what to read or not read. Get a life people. It's a public newsgroup. You can ignore whatever isn't of interest to you. The only bandwidth wasting posts (other than this one) are the ones trying to tell people what they should and should not be discussing in the rest of the posts. Get a newsreader that compresses threads if that's your problem. Am I the only one who is annoyed with these ever-increasing in frequency complaints?

Even OE can filter messages. Even without the filter, the subject lines and traffic usually tell me what I don't want. Even on dialup, the total traffic is so light the messages are downloaded before I'm back with my cup of coffee. Stephen
Yes, the complainers are very sad and arent happy unless theyre moaning. I dont care about RASCAR so I made a filter so I dont download any RASCAR messages, that took less time than writing this reply. Obviously the complainers are too stupid to realise this. -- Steve "They say a glass of wine makes you live longer but there's a drawback with that, the French drink it" Guvnor.

>"Marc Collins" <[email hidden]> wrote > Are some people reading this group really that stupid? <swine> Your thread was RASCAR-related and it did not have the word "RASCAR" in it's header. I'm calling the police now. ;) -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- http://ymenard.cjb.net/ -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimago-Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...

Yes, but I noted that I was doing so in my original post. I will note again here that I am doing it again by replying! :) Marc "Doug Ellison" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:MP93b.595$[email hidden]... > > > Am I the only one who is annoyed with these ever-increasing in frequency > > complaints? > > > > Havnt you just compounded the issue by complaining about the complaining:D > > LOL > > Doug > >
