When asked for comment after the incident, ClassAct@skuz.net had this to say... >>>(a.h.ww removed from followups) >> >>Yeah right. I added a.h.w back in. > >I can't possibly understand how this could be off-topic for that >group, since the whole thing started over a.h.w. (?) > >Werewimps? >-- >ClassAct Three cheers for prejudice! Hip hip hooray! You know, if we were all just a little more hateful, and encouraged the harassment of fringe groups, I think UseNet's problems would go away a lot faster. In addition, I'd like to add my support to those enlightened folks who look for results, not causes. After all, if someone's bothering you, there's no *way* they can have a good reason for what they're doing. Having people invade, harass, and generally make life miserable for a newsgroup that for many is the closest thing to family there is is *no* excuse to talk to their ISPs. I mean, if freedom of speech doesn't mean you can offend and insult whoever you like without worrying about the consequences, I don't know what good it is. Let's hear it for irresponsibility, pettyness, and usenet gang warfare in general! -- Eryk "Hamster" Nielsen? Or Kyremius the dragon? You decide. /Once you realize reality is fluid, you cannot help but make waves\ Defiant dreamer and modern barbarian; the lockjaw historian.
