Quoted message said:I'm thinking continuing dialogue only feeds the animals and gives him a
soapbox. Maybe if enough people ignore him he'll find something else to
fixate on.
I've participated in another Usenet group that had a different, but similarly
pain-in-the-ass regular like Brian. To be honest, the dude I'm talking about
made Brian look like half a saint, but I digress. Anyway, I emailed the 6 or 7
regulars I respected most and asked them to ignore him. They complied and the
offensive twit abandoned the group in less than a month. Personally, I don't
want Brian to leave this group. He may be waaayyy off center, but he's still
part of the balance, no? Not only that, but also I believe in free speech, even
for obsessed, gay-for-Lance twerps like Laughingstockerty.
