Greg hasn't posted here for a while. It seems that he's been banned
from posting via google because someone got their knickers in a twist
about an OT post he made here several months ago. He's asked me to
apologize for his offense. This is it. He's sorry.

Greg's a nice guy. That someone reported him to google for doing once
what a boatload of others continue to do here regularly and frequently
boggles my mind. And he regrets that he wasn't able to address his
transgression on group and apologize in this forum.

What the hell? That's ridiculous. And, unless I'm mistaken, I haven't
seen him post anything offensive so this is uncalled for. Tell him
to find a way to get back here. He sure doesn't owe me any apology.

Sheesh... what could he have said that's worse than anything that I've said at
least a zillion times?

Have him try news.individual.net.

That's why Google doesn't archive any of your recent posts, Sheldon....

This is crazy, I do not remember anything he has said that was so awful. This
newsgroup has had people make comments all the time and not get into trouble.
I think Google is out of line...

Since people don't pay to use google, they have a very hardass policy
towards spamming, trolling and off-topic posting in general. They'd
rather can people when complaints come in than deal with it.

It should be noted that most ISPs forbid off-topic posting to usenet
groups. It's just that few will take action for relatively innocuous
instances, because they don't want to get rid of paying customers.
Google doesn't have that problem.

Nothing against Greg, but the idea that he has been banned from posting for
a single off-topic post really stretches the imagination. And even if he was
it would take about 5 minutes to find another way to post. This story just
does not hold water.

You gotta be kidding. The following is the only thing I could find by
Greg that was even off-topic (except when he replied to someone else's
OT bullshit.) BTW, I didn't use Google to search jic they had expunged
his post; a server that I don't use very often still has almost 100000
active messages for r.f.c.

Brace yourselves, this isn't pretty [he said, sarcasticly]:

There's got to be more to this, something we're not being told. ISPs do not
investigate reports of mere OT posts, especially not to UNmoderated
Newsgroups... if ISPs zapped accounts for mere OT posts there'd be no Usenet...
this in fact is an entirely OT thread and we're all still here. And in fact
ISPs are far more likely to investigate the Newsgroup Police Complaintants,
especially the Serial Complaintants. So Barb, did Greg Zywicki contact you
via email? If he did than he has internet access, and if he has internet
access he can subscribe to Newsgroups. Perhaps he never really had his own
ISP, he could have been using his employer's account, as is true with most
Googlers, Hotmailers, any freebie accounts... perhaps he no longer has access
to his employer's account, that sounds more like the *real* deal. This story
smells funny (fercocktah funny)... kinda like boiled BEETS... now we're back on
topic.

That's too bad, and he's missed here by me and, I'm sure, by many others.
Obviously there must be a reason why he must post via google, but AFAIC
google is one of the worst posting methods there is. Hope he finds a way!
