  1. Sometime in the past fortnight or so I got an email from one of the Aus
    online bike shops advertising a CD jam packed full of bicycle
    maintenance stuff (from memory it was somethign like 600 pages).
    Unfortunately I seem to have deleted the email and I can't remember who
    it came from (I've checked a couple of the sites I use but can't see
    anything). Did anyone else get this email and recall who it came from?

    We already knew you were a [censored]. There's no need to carry on about it.

    Whereas you will always be one. (don't you just love it when the name
    calling starts)

    I would have thought that a Usenet cop would know to include "OT" in the
    subject when he wanted to start a little rant, so as not to bore most people
    to tears.(you will notice I am bottom posting, as this has now become a
    long, technical and boring thread).

    Cyclingforums [censored] it up again. So what else is new? It works fine for
    proper newsreaders.

    I'll try again:

    Q: What is the most annoying thing on Usenet?

  10. the top is continually repeated over & over
    I dont have a govt job so i cant spend all day scrolling past repeated parts
    of posts at the top....
    what confuses me that people repond to various paets of posts in the same
    text style.. dont have the time...
    I would have thought a response at the top would be more practical

    Hmmmmmmm
    Yes im a top poster
    doofus

    No, it isn't. It's lazy and confusing. You should show your readers some
    consideration.

    You're obviously not called doofus for nothing.

    Worked for me, it's cycling forums not being able to handle dashes
    in URLs. Wonder how it goes with hex-codes:
