Boring dood.
They are still here on Qwest ngs. I always access with OE or Mozilla newsreader...no patience for the fancy interface stuff.
Religion is OK in most of it's varied forms. Some people like it. Some people don't. Some people just can't stop fiddling with it whether they like it or not. I think it's rather personal. ........ it is much like sex.
thats fine whatever he/you/anyone believes, it is however, not relevant to an alarm ng...but then again neither is a lot of the bickering herein Religion is OK in most of it's varied forms. Some people like it. Some people don't. Some people just can't stop fiddling with it whether they like it or not. I think it's rather personal. ........ it is much like sex.

relevant to an alarm ng...but then again neither is a lot of the bickering herein Hmmm, that's where you seem to get rather obtuse. Here, in this "alarm ng",(as you describe this ethereal place) there is one who uses you, your experience, your freely given information and everyone elses, as a means to profit. One who does it with intentional malace and forethought. One who exercises his intentionally rude manner with those who openly object to his flagrant abuse of the ground rules, of no advertising in this group. One who knows that it is because of his constant and intentional abuse of others, his lies, his thievery of information, his falsifying his identity to impugn and denigrate others, that this group is in constant turmoil. .... but does it anyway. One who demeans the alarm installation trade by calling installers stupid, idiots, monkeys ..... who points out the few bad things about the industry and implies that it is rampant ......... all to simply further his personal agenda.... to sell product. Yet ironically relates himself to the installation trade by telling lies by insinuation that he is still in the installation trade. This, while communicating with end users making inquiry here, simply to gain their confidence, by implying that he is still up to date with the latest technology. And add to all of this, the fact that he has been forced from other Usenet groups for doing the same exact thing in other groups as he does here, and the self confessed and admission that he has obviously not ever been in control of his personal affairs during much of his life. ............... and you state that the bickering here is not relevant to the theme of this Newsgroups intention? If you think that all of this is unrelated to the intention of this NG, I'd venture to say, you don't have a clue. Can you appreciate the present condition of this group, when he isn't here to intentionally stir the pot? Have you noticed that people can have disagreements and move on, without insults and name calling? Can you actually state that, what he, and ONLY he, does here, which incites the "bickering" .........that he doesn't do it to intentionally disrupt this group, isn't relevent to the intention of this group? Can you say, that if he would stop his intentional disruption of this group and infringement of the base ground rules ...... (and never mind the rules of the NG, how about just the rules of common courtesy and getting along with others and not being rude and abusive?) that there would be any of your so described " bickering " ? It is no mere coincidence that the "bickering" disappears when he's gone. That it exists only when he's here and that this is a his pattern duing his presence in other newsgroups. Take note. I'll be gone for about two weeks. Let's see what happens. Maybe you'll get a clue about the source and reasons this group is in constant strife. I don't expect you to take a side, but if you *really* don't know why this group is the way it is ........... there's nothing else I can say. By the way, I do believe that if everyone would actually "take a side" that it would cure the problem altogether. Not necessarily to oust him, but just to put him in his place when he offended the theme of the NG. It worked in the aviation group that he was "thrown out of" All it would take is for everyone to individually respond when he became his obnoxious self. Unfortunately, in spite of the fact that I know that most of the participants agree with my assesment ....... the majority seem to be apathetic. Much in tune with the weak charater, morals, standards, ethics and lethargic attitude that generally seems to prevail now days. To many generations of TV watchers, Id guess. A world of the acceptance of the least common denominator ...... mentality. Aloha!
