The abuse and unpleasantness started in the late 1990s, as can be seen in
the archives.
That was long before Steve posted to the group.
When I started posting, around 2001, I was shocked by what I saw. I
recognise the style of
some of the ring leaders who cause the abuse, for example by postings with
abusive titles.

But in a recent court case, in order to protect your own back, you swore
blind that everything that had transpired in uk.radio.amateur was just
light hearted banter. So, were you then committing perjury, and then
as now changing your tune to suit the direction from which the wind
was blowing?
