Look, no offense, the only thing that's been "discredited" in this group
in
the last 2 months (since I've been here anyway)is the fact that the hams
(or
those professed to be so) are a bunch of whining azzholes. Some,
including
yourself, add MUCH needed tech/help. But MOST hams are only here for ONE
purpose, to disrupt the group.....
Let's get a few things straight: First, I'm not a ham.
Thought I read you were..np.
Second, there
are plenty of hams in this newsgroup that are illegal operators.
Don't care, didn't comment...none of my business(which is part of my point)
Third, trolling doesn't require a ham license, nor does it require a
position on the legal/illegal issues.
Didn't say it did required a license. I said the alledged HAMS in this ng
are the ones MAKING the problems. FACT.
Fourth, CB radio doesn't exclude
hams, and many hams are also CB radio operators.
Didn't say it did/didn't. Made no comment.
Trolls are trolls, hams are hams, and CBers are CBers. This is true
regardless of which group they claim to represent, regardless of their
stance on illegal operation, and regardless of the fact that there
will always be a few malcontents that will try to make everyone else's
life as miserable as their own. If you can't make these distinctions
then you might as well start trolling now because that's what you will
end up doing later on.
Blah, blah, look, maybe you missed my point or I wasn't clear. I'm damn
positive that cb'ers are cb'ers and hams are hams!! I'm also positive that
trolls are trolls....but thanks for pointing out the obvious. MY POINT was
that so far, the trolls seem to be hams that are doing NOTHING but shaking a
hornets nest in regards to what's legal/illegal, name-calling and just
general disruption of rec.radio.CB. And I CAN AND DID make the friggin'
distinction!! I'm the one saying the disgruntled hams are causing the
trouble!! How could I possibly make that point MORE distinct?
And I won't "end up trolling", Dr Crane....but I appreciate the online
psychological exam all the same. I'm just glad I didn't pay for it:-).
