Re: Never mind.. I must be hearing things
I have seen many longer threads in this NG that fritter on forever about
nothing....isn't this NG for helping people solve problems and have others
benefit from the ensuing information? If I am misusing it, then I apologize,
but I thought that is what a newsgroup of this type is for.

Listen up, son. The group exists for folks to share information. But there's a
right way to do everything in life. Acting like a petulant child won't make up
for the fact that you've been abusing the group by thread proliferation, and
claiming a defense based on the idiotic behavior of others is unlikely to
prove successful.
It's a simple request that benefits the group.

Re: Never mind.. I must be hearing things
I think you are misunderstanding the situation, tripper. First of all, I am
not your son.
Secondly, I was not aware that other newsreaders may be proliferating
threads, as I have explained.
Thirdly, I apologized for it, even though I wasn't aware I was doing it. The
idiotic behavior of others is not under my control.
And, lastly, I am not acting like a petulant child. Just tell me what I need
to do to correct the misunderstanding about threading, and I will gladly
adapt. I don't mean to offend anyone in this group intentionally, so please
stop implying that I did something on purpose.
Perhaps you are having a bad day today?

Re: Never mind.. I must be hearing things
I think you are misunderstanding the situation, tripper. First of all, I am
not your son.
Secondly, I was not aware that other newsreaders may be proliferating
threads, as I have explained.
Thirdly, I apologized for it, even though I wasn't aware I was doing it. The
idiotic behavior of others is not under my control.
And, lastly, I am not acting like a petulant child. Just tell me what I need
to do to correct the misunderstanding about threading, and I will gladly
adapt. I don't mean to offend anyone in this group intentionally, so please
stop implying that I did something on purpose.
Perhaps you are having a bad day today?
