Welcome to the new world of ham radio. That'll be thirty-nine dollars
and here's your complimentary QST and CB radio.

SC;

Do you have any positive proof of what you are saying here? If you do
post them or drop the topic.

I'm afraid that you can't order SC around that way. He's a *real* 20
wpm extra, whereas you're only a nickel extra. Show some respect or
else get off Usenet.


Respect has to be earned. That comes from a person's actions and what they
say, not from the fact that they possess a particular mechanical skill
(Morse in this case). So far SC had said and done very little to gain
anyone's respect; quite the opposite in fact; continual spamming of this
news group with bigoted off-topic garbage.

Is your name David? Do you think that he can't supply his own
answers, so you'll do it for him?

You can't even quote a Usenet post properly. Work on that before
attempting more complicated things like critiquing SC.



My name is David and you are not displaying anything deserving on
respect either.

If you bothered to read my post there were NO attributions at all , just
quotes from the previous message in the thread that required no attribution.
So none of them were "Bad".

No my name is not David, as it clearly said at the end of the message. I was
not replying on David's behalf, merely commenting on the fact that respect
is not something that comes merely with an ability or a qualification; it
has to be earned by words and deeds. SC has not demonstrated anything here
that would earn respect; quite the opposite in fact.

Critiquing SC is not difficult, his rantings make that task very easy, Even
if his arguments did have any merit, his off-topic spam like postings debase
the whole point of view. It just looks like very childish behaviour.

You figured it out, Jeff. SC is my 8 year old

a single character of Morse code.

Cecil,

I don't believe you. I think you're kidding us.

Everybody knows that 8 year olds don't act *that* childish....

PKB.

You aren't buying, selling, or swapping anything, so why are you
crossposting to rec.radio.swap? More to the point, why aren't you setting
a followup to your crosspost?

There's a plethora of information on Usenet at http://snipurl.com/10buv
Search for the word "crossposting".

I always knew Uncle Cecil was the Black sheep of the family. He hates ham
radio. I'm going to tell Grandpa Hiram not to invite him to the next

My, my. Someone whose idea of making a point is to change the subject.

1. The newsgroups were selected by one of your own.

No; they were selected by a malevolent troll who presents a data point
indicating that W2NSD/1 might have been on to something, assuming he
really is an Extra.

I merely followed up
to the thread. Talk to the original poster if you are really serious
(which of course you are not);

He has been challenged on his behavior before. He has replied with his
five lifetime goals. He is a one-trick pony.

He is boring.

2. The URI you list is non-authoritative, and probably unreliable. The
primary authoritative sources on Usenet posting are to be found in the
news.answers group.

http://snipurl.com/10buv

(That expands to
ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet-by-hie...estions/How_to
_find_the_right_place_to_post_(FAQ), by the way.)

# Newsgroups:
# news.announce.newusers,news.groups.questions,news. groups.reviews,
# news.groups,news.newusers.questions,alt.config,alt .answers,NEWS.ANSWERS

Seems it *was* posted to NEWS.ANSWERS.

Accept nothing else (I suggest that you take a look
at the posting FAQ, because you've already violated several of its
guidelines), and

Really. Several?

Which ones, praytell? Posting to a newsgroup I don't read? I know
where rrap is; I choose not to read it. Nevertheless, it is dragged
willy nilly into a newsgroup I *do* read.

The questions were rhetorical, by the way. You needn't answer.

3. Remove the hook that's dangling from your mouth. Everybody can
see that you've been snapping at troll bait.

He says, to my first response to this incessant interminable internecine
war.

Welcome to my killfile. You and "Slow Code" can keep each other
company.


You try to help someone be a better ham and look what happens, they
killfile you. I knew dumbing down ham radio would let in a bunch of
ungrateful people, but I didn't think it would get this bad.

It's the hook in his mouth. It's painful and probably makes him
cranky. On the other hand, that Pan news reader of his is very buggy
and is known for silently removing characters when it sends articles.

Maybe it was Pan talking instead. Grizzard may be a nice guy who has
simply been sandbagged by a crappy news reader I'll bet that its
killfiling doesn't work either, and that he has accidentally killfiled
himself.

In any case, he'll eventually be back. We can help him then.

That coming from someone who uses OE for news reading? You wouldn't know
a quality news reader if it jumped up and bit you.

Good day, sir. I said GOOD DAY!
