Bit like the real world then!

You have no idea what a flood is. You also apparently don't know how
to ignore something. It's not rocket science.

You wouldn't stick your beak in on a tube train conversation would you
if you weren't interested?

It's very much a reality and serious. Old Codger, Oz, Jim Webster,
Jill Bowis are all active participants in pro hunt extremism and of
the usual bullying ilk. They don't like it uppem and they don't like
anything that can fight back.

NetKops are despised by most of usenet. Their boring posts on how to
post far outweigh any other usenet problems. Usually by a ratio of
50/1
