Just two points:

a) The issue seems to be important enought to pop up again, and again,
and again. If the topic was unimportant, it would have died by now.


I don't mind it being an important issue. That's not what irritates me. What
does irritate me is the fact that there seems to be no way to get the point
through to the "color guard" here on LUGNET that not everyone wants to listen to
their bitching an moaning.

b) if you avoid LUGNET, how did you manage to answer anyway?


I read .Space. I shun everything else specifically because of this topic.

Disagreeing with other peoples views is one point. Telling other people
to shut up because they have a different opinion is another. Think about
it, and grow up while you do.

Yes, I disagree with the views of the original post. Did I tell anyone to shut
up? No, re-read my original post and pay attention this time.

As to growing up - Fuck Off! I've been posting to LUGNET for 7 years. It's only
been in the last year that I've found the people who post to LUGNET to be
incessantly whiny, "woe is me because the greys don't match" trolls. It used to
be the friendliest place on earth. Now LUGNET is turning into an abscess on the
ass of the internet.


yours, Christian

whatever,

For some it is the whining that has tarnished the reputation of Lugnet.

For others, it is beligerant posts like this one, and the people who find it
necessary to spotlight posts like this one, that have forced people to filter
their reading of Lugnet or discontinue it entirely.

But then again, I've only been here for five years, so maybe it's just a
seniority thing.

(...) I've been here since the beginning, but honestly, I only read LUGNET a couple times a week now. The only reason I read this is Duane's post hit my radar screen on a private list. It's just not worth my time anymore to read a bunch of (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jan-05, to lugnet.color) !
