It's usenet. The background noise is a part of the whole thing,

No one corrected his grammar or his syntax. I told him that I think
it's ridiculous and rude to purposely make one's writing difficult to
read in a text-only medium, and that the difficulty of reading his
posts robbed them of any other value they might have. Then I plonked
him.

I'm not going to waste any more time trying to figure out what the
hell he's trying to say, if he's rude and self-centered enough to
continually and purposely make his writing obscure and difficult to
understand. Anyone who would purposely use "ya" to mean "you,"
"you're," and "your"--often in the same sentence--isn't trying to
communicate but is instead just saying "Look at me! Look at me!"

Bite me, Chuckles. I plonked him; I didn't tell him to do anything.

If you can't see that it is self-defeating, rude, and foolish to
purposely make your writing difficult to read and understand, then
you're dumber than a sack of hammers.

Ah, the old, "I didn't tell him to do anything" ploy; you just plonked
him for not doing it your way.

In every bunch of roses, you get a few pricks.

Usenet seems to bring out the personality defects in a subset of
posters. Ignore the top and bottom 5%, the middle block are the real
people.

The point is to have fun with this. And if criticising your posts is
their idea of fun, screw 'em. Do what *you* enjoy. I am :-)

I don't get it. You're a good cook, that's been established IMO. You
know a lot about the subject and have a passion for it. I haven't
seen a post from you about cooking in a long, long time.

You seem to pop up now whenever an excuse for conflict arises.
You did that before also, but at least you talked about food once
in awhile. If you're going to snipe, why not throw in something
food related along with it? Are you still using the K or what?

Then you should google AFB on . Plenty there about
cooking.

You did notice who started this thread, right? Frohe--either trolling
or whining, but certainly not talking about BBQ. Why don't you take it
up with him?

>You did that before also, but at least you talked about food once

Who's sniping? I explained in this thread why I found Frohe's writing
more bother to read than it is worth. HE starts a thread about some
people bitching about his writing and I'm not supposed to contribute
to it? (BTW, I'm with Wertz on this one. Frohe has no intention of
leaving. He's trolling.)

> Are you still using the K or what?

Just about every day, often enough that I've had the postman and some
guys remodeling a house next door ask me if I'm a caterer. Yesterday a
couple racks of spares, done at 280 to 300 for about 4.5 hours,
indirect, over lump with a chunk of maple thrown in.

I think you're nuts for even considering dropping out. You've been a
great help to me over the last couple of years and I'd miss you if you
were gone.

OTOH, your posts are sometimes a bit hard to read, but that could be a
comprehension problem for this yankee:-)

If yer gonna to turn sensitive and take things
