I guess the point of the rant is, for those out there who "police" the groups,
try to be _constructive_ in your policing. The Internet is full of people who
love to show off by being brusque, snippy, and downright nasty to newbies,
occasional users, and those who "go to the wrong place to ask a question."
Let's not let LUGNET become like that.
Or am I in the wrong group for this reply? :-)
