[double posted to ott.general] Many Ottawans agree with you completely. Problem is, no one in this newsgroup can do anything about it. Gordon Dewis, the Polarbear enforcer, does not often participate in discussions here. He has not taken part in threads since Nov 18. Other ONAG members rarely, if ever, come here to ott.general. So here we have an interesting situation that affects ott.general, with the decision makers sitting somewhere else (ott.config if you are really inclined to make the effort), and the regular participants in this newsgroup unable to x-post to ott.config. Divide and conquer would you say? lawrence day (lday@pathcom.com) writes: > I recently replied to a post in can.politics which had been > crossposted to this group. > Then I received an obnoxious reply from 'polarbear' telling me my post > had been cancelled because this tiny and unimportant group does not > allow crossposts. > It was deleted not only here but from the bigger group I was posting > in. > This is arrogant, self-important and rude behaviour. > Ottawa should be ashamed! > > Lawrence Day -- Donate blood http://www.bloodservices.ca/Ontario/Ottawa/index.html
