Are you saying that we should treat him as we would a loony on a bus?
Yes.

Once again, it is from your own keyboard that the abuse originates.


Ok, last question of mine was a philosophical one that didn't work, so I'll
try a new tack: How many people need to know the score, who do not already
know it, and who will be ariving here especially, avidly, waiting with bated
breath to learn the gory and sordid details?

It really IS time to let it rest. Given that all the people after a moderated
group are basically just people tired of this, wanting to go to another room
and quietly close the door, I don't blame them, and some alternative would be
a good thing. And it thei insist of keeping thsi noise out of that room, I
see no fault in that either.

Whenever I have got bitter about some kind of online dispute I just go
somewhere else, and do somethign else, especially when it's an obvious case
of flogging dead horses. Act unilaterally. It's the fastest way to learn who
isn't capable or willing to act.

I have purposefully been trimming .antenna from my replies to this thread
as I have no desire to propagate the degeneracy of Gareth Alun Evans G4SDW
beyond the squalid confines of ukra. As you've seen, however, Gareth has no
shame whatsoever in destroying newsgroups. He's been doing it for nearly
two decades.

I used to think that Gareth was some kind of genius performance artist,
perpetuating a collosal joke at all of our expense. Then I read the various
newspaper reports and Usenet postings of his various brushes with the law,
his triumph at the suicide of the police officer who had to restrain him
with a boot to the head (a suicide which was in no small part a result of
Gareth's baseless complaints against the officer), his vile comments re two
murdered primary school girls, his multiple vendettas against other radio
amateurs often culminating in trying to have them sacked by way of
insinuating pedophilia/sexual issues in letters to their employers,
physical assault to his postman, and so on, and so on. And I realised that
he absolutely was not playing some kind of huge prank. He was just
deranged. Psychotic, perhaps.

Gareth is a genuinely unhinged person. I hope that that's becoming clearer
to you all the more gibberish he posts to your group. You'll never manage
to engage with him on any kind of human level, he just isn't capable.

That may well be so, but I was suggesting my notion to all who will read it
and who may think it time it was tried. If Gareth becomes a real danger,
there is enough history to guide new predent. This is not a judgement I am
qualified or informed enough to make, no matter what I learn here. I am
convinced the matter is serious though, and that it is time everyone thought
seriously about their part in it.
