    Anyone can join and my commitment is not to ban anyone except blatant
    trolls. I just don't know if Usenet offers a real method to deal with
    truly disturbed people with a LOT of time on their hands.

    I can tell ya, it IS pretty satisfying to have a "ban" option to use.

    To me it's a little like reading a magazine or watching a TV show that
    is filled with lots of ads. I've become inured to it and just don't
    look. In fact, I mute the commercials at home, and online I just glance
    right past them without reading. TBR is easy to detect on so many
    levels that there really isn't any effort required to ignore him if you
    practice.

    The other people, well, killfiles work.

    Luckily "ignoring" isn't the same as "not reading", so I'm annoying
    you no matter how you look at it.

    With no interest expressed I'm going to delete it.

    I think all that is left here are the trolls. Sad.

    Oh well, have fun!

    Just another indication that JMW and his makeshift Killfile Kadre is more
    interested in attention than actually filtering out so-called noise.

    Attention: It's all noise. The problem is with perception. But, yeah,
    enjoy!

    How many times have you publicly announced that you were leaving the
    newsgroup, Mike? I'm starting to lose count.

    deleting posts too.

    It's got to prove something, Joe. The trolls give these people a cause to
    rally around. Without trolls it would be like Bush without terrorists. There
    would be nothing to whine about. These people can't really envisage a life
    without trolls.

    That's a profound thought for a total moron.

    I don't know about Mike but that was my first time to try something
    like that. In any case, it wasn't a farewell.

    That's what you always say, Mikey.
