You make no sense Paul... If you post off topic, I'm supposed to ignore them because nobody forces me to read any posts... Meanwhile if anybody else posts off topic it's okay for you to yell at them and get mad and start a thread that goes on for days and days. That's how this whole thread got started. You are contradicting yourself. Also you set double standards.. One for yourself and one for everyone else.
> So you think that it's ok to crosspost to unrelated groups then? I notice > that *you* don't do it! Why not if it's an acceptable practice? Crossposting is not an acceptable practice. HPB was not right there. But then again you kept replying to the crossposts making you just as bad.

I've even gone > as far as to repost my original mail, where I ask that the crossposting > stop. HPB chose not to see that post. Just as you said before.. You have email.. You could have personally took it up with him yet you choose instead to take it into an all drawn out war over the newsgroup. > You should expect *nothing* of me! If your intentions had been as noble as > you *say* they are, you could have *quite* easily taken your concerns to > email. You seem to expect a lot of everyone else. I expect you to behave in this newsgroup, not be a like a "troll". Is that too much to ask? *I* use my real email address, so you *can* reply to me privately. Others, for some reason best known to themselves, prefer not to. Why *did* you feel the need to add to this thread that you are so annoyed by? You have the best advice Paul... But you didn't follow it yourself either. > You were told that, because I'm sick of the sort of prat who attacks the > wrong target, and for their own private agenda.

If you didn't get so bent out of shape over one crosspost and haddn't kept on, there wouldn't be all this crap here. > I can see that your problem with me is personal, and *nothing* to do with > this thread. Why can't you just admit it to yourself? > > P I have no personal problem with you Paul... I only know you from what I read on the newsgroup, and lately that has been nothing but crap. Dave
