What is the purpose of this and other NGs?

The purpose of the three cross posted newsgroups are to act as a stage for you to act out your victim drama. So why are you enabling? Frustration. You may have missed what rec.radio.amateur.antenna was like before he arrived. There were a fair collection of very knowledgeable experts present, that were able to answer most questions. There were also very interesting discussions, on such things as fractal antennas and modeling. I was involved with several people reverse engineering an MFJ-1800 antenna. I won't claim to be anywhere near as knowledgeable as these people. I read, I learned, I tried to answer a few questions, and I made a fool of myself displaying my ignorance in a few areas. Today, these people are gone or hiding. Nothing of any technical interest has appeared for many months. We are now blessed with discussions of quantum physics, which have no relevance to antenna design. We are deluged with stupid questions by Gareth which rapidly morph into discussions about the details of Gareth's perceived persecutions. I have yet to see any calculations or real antennas. https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!activity/rec.radio.amateur.antenna/xnXlqNH1MAAJ I just hate to see graffiti on a wall, garbage in the streets, and Gareth in this newsgroup. Staying quiet hasn't worked, so I decided it was worth one last try, which apparently has failed. Yes, I became part of the problem, but I think it was worth the risk. Too bad it didn't work. I'm not sure what to next. I'll probably just resort to selectively reading posts by those that I know are knowledgeable and have something to offer. I also have a real live genuine antenna problem that I can't solve. I'm not ready to post it yet, but soon. What is the best way to handle this? Ignore him... no? I don't know. Neither shoving a mirror in his face or ignoring him seems to be working. My current solution is to simply add a filter to Forte Agent newsreader, that reduces the number of acceptable cross posted newsgroups from my current 3 to 1 for this group. Since Gareth likes a large and unwilling audience for dramas, that should drop any threads he originates. http://www.forteinc.com/agent/faq.php#BAF8BFCB74FE9B17852571C0000D3065 No follow ups please. It's not worth the effort. Too long, didn't read... -- Rick |
