Why didn't you try to discuss something with your post rather than complaining?

Nope. Use a kill file.

Instead of simply zapping individuals, zap topics.
If you use certain keywords to zap the topics,
it'll improve things quite a bit.

There are very few people here who post completely
off topic. There are a couple who mostly do it, but
no one who's completely off base.

I have NO idea how my name got in the top six of that list. It must be a
defective statistics program, as I don't merit more than a twentieth place.
Nineteenth at best.

On a more serious note, recently I've been trying to follow the example
set by two other members of this group who have made a conscious effort
to be nicer to their fellow human beings. In that vein, I will not be
feeding or commenting on any more insulting or negative postings by anyone.

It's a waste of time and instead of modifying behavior, just causes more
stupidity.

Let's see how it goes.
