Why is it so difficult to resist turning this group into a cacophony of
babbling? It is hard to get more than a small handful in a conversation
that help many of us learn, but one idiot posts some garbage and gets a
dozen replies.

I know people have talked about how they successfully ignored the idiot
and shooed him away. Why can't we do that in this group too? Just
resist responding to him no matter what he says. Then if anyone does
respond to the idiot, consider those posts to be from idiots too and
ignore them as well.

In URA we just all just agreed not to respond to his posts and it all
went quiet. Occasionally people slipped and were reminded by the group.
Unfortunately it did seem to push him into other NGs..... sorry about
that chaps.

The thing is, in the past I have found him helpful and informative but
of late it is all abuse, faux indignation and starting threads with
innocent inquiries as titles and then turning them into arguements.
He saw me as the instigator of 'Project Shun' and so completely ignores
me now so I will just have to live without the nasty personal abuse
which he keeps denying but it is all archived.
