I will not killfile people, I will get them kicked out.

No, you won't. You can't.

There is nothing, NOTHING you can do here. This is a public,
non-moderated newsgroup. Short of blatant threats, continuous
commercial spam or other such things, you can not get someone "kicked
out" of here. This is not AOL or CompuServe. There is no one in
control here. If you don't like someone's posts, then don't download
them. That's really all you can do.

Meanwhile, you look completely idiotic and naive in the extreme with
your posturing and "I'll get you kicked out" nonsense.

I always love it when some self-appointed Net Nanny comes along and
threatens to "clean up the newsgroup for the good of all". They
bluster for a few days, then realize they can't do anything and slink
away.
