You know, Pete, it really isn't necessary to quote 48 lines of text in
a 1-line followup.

But Kevvie,
Please explain why this is more of a problem than all of your posts that
are posted in AFB *AND* in your favorite group (that has nothing to do
with BARBECUE).
Oh, it's only important to *YOU*? That's the difference?

Thanks for playing, BOB

You don't really think that's clever or original, do you? I hope not.
That would just be sad.

Just as soon as you explain to me how you happen to know what my
favorite groups is, Kreskin. While you're at it, please explain why
you continue to read a thread that never had anything to do with BBQ.
What exactly are you expecting to find?

You know, it's said that a defining characteristic of insanity is
doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results.

Oh, it's only important to *YOU*? That's the difference?

You're not familiar with the logical fallacy of false assumptions, are
you? Before you can talk about any difference, you first have to
establish that the x-posted thread is a problem.

Go ahead. I'll wait.

Your continued replies and those of calitosis to the crossposted
thread are not appreciated.

So, like Boob, you're going to duck the obvious question. I'll ask it
again:

Why are you reading a thread that never had anything to do with BBQ? I
honestly would like to know what you bozos expect to find there, and
why you keep obsessively looking for it.

Bonus Question: Why aren't you talking to CAL if you're experiencing
serious emotianal trauma over the x-posted thread? You might ask him,
for instance, why he crossposted a message into AFB that had nothing
to do with BBQ.

Do you always shout out the punchline before tellling the joke?

Hey, that's original. I'll bet there's at least two newbie lurkers who
haven't seen that site before.

I heard about this one site that has dancing hamsters on it. It's
really LOL.

Do you have a URL to that site in your Favorites Bookmark?

It took his bringing the a.r.k'ers over here to finally decide me. Now that

Try to keep up. I've repeatedly posted the link to CAL's crossposting
of a thread out of ARK into AFB, a thread that had nothing to do with
BBQ. Here is the link again, with the full post appended below.

http://groups-beta.google.com/group/alt.food.barbecue/msg/7c8733e6fc361c22?dmode=source

So why don't you ask CAL why he "brought the a.r.k'ers over here"? I
figure you don't do so because that would mean admitting that you are
wrong, wrong, wrongitty wrong about who "brought the a.r.k'ers over
here."

Here's the full post, showing CAL crossposting a thread that
originated in ARK and that had nothing to do with BBQ.

As I've said before, people get back what they serve up. Google the
thread and watch the "rancour" emerge after I politely ask the OP to
trim quoted text from his follow-ups.

http://groups-beta.google.com/group/alt.food.barbecue/msg/b50217913ed9c67e?dmode=source

That would be BOB hijacking the thread to engage in humping my leg,
followed closely by the two Nicks doing the same. Of course, Duwop has
to chime in because . . . well, I guess because he can't help himself.

I suggest that you look to the source of the "rancour" while
considering the concept of cause-and-effect. People want to talk
about BBQ? Great, I'm all for that. People want to follow me around to
engage in personal attacks and snarkiness? I'll amuse myself by
mocking and taunting them, since that seems to be what they want.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone out of their way to turn the
conversation from BBQ to personal attacks and snarkiness.

Just ONCE I would like to see someone here say, "Gee, BOB, Nick(s),
Duwop, et al., we were talking about BBQ. Why are you hijacking the
thread to express your dislike for Kevin?"

But that would require seeing things in context, such as noting that
the "rancour" in this particular thread began with BOB's hijacking of
it to engage in a personal attack and snarkiness.

I agree, seems like I remember a time when all flamers, those who
started it and those that jumped on it were throttled! There are no
right or wrong, good or bad sides in a flame war, just flammers! It
seems half my time reading AFB is in setting rules to block the
seemingly endless flame threads. Don't care to hear either side!
