Please stop responding to trolls. It is the only way to get rid of them.

Eesh. Hangover in a bottle. Avoid. Save a few pennies and spring

NEWSFLASH!!! He doesn't want to "get rid" of us. We give his sad, little,
tawdry life, meaning. Like all the rest of you Macfish. I would say that
it's a good symbiotic relationship. Some of you want to be abused - we
want to abuse you. We are after all, only trying to make you happy. At
great cost to us, I might add.

We should not get rid of them. Responding to trolls such as zara and
Muahman is what we should do here, to keep them out of the real Mac
groups.

My, you described my life 100%. I feel so sad and hurt right now. You
really nailed it. I'm hurting. Please somebody help me. I'm just a
shadow of my former self.

Whoa! What a comeback! You really slapped me in the face with that
one, zara! Damn you're good at this. How could I ever compete with
your superior wit?

Damn, do I feel humiliated or what?

I don't drink alcohol, Zero. Back in high school, I looked around and
saw that the kids who did drink tended to make asses of themselves
(rather like you and prat do here), so I declined to participate.

Don't. It's only part of the "learning experience". Very similar to the
"mac experience".

Good idea except that it doesn't seem to work. Zero, for instance, has spread
his infection to other Mac groups.

We must work harder. Make him feel like he is taking advantage of us.
It seems to work.

The important thing is to make sure he doesn't find out how to get
access to our _private_ Mac group; please be careful what you say here,
I'd hate if if we had to moderate the thing.

It's not a matter of expense, it's using what's best for the job. If
you don't want it, don't use it. No one is holding a gun to your
head. Now run along and play with your toys.....shoo.... The grown
ups here have work to do.

Haven't you heard, Macs run Windows now. So this inform is totally

And Windows is worth every penny you pay for it too to some people. To
me OS X is lacking so it is not worth every penny I pay for it. Linux is
worth every penny to some and to others it's of no use to them. Please don't
confuse opinions with facts. I've used all of those OSes at one time or
another and they all have good points and bad points.

Snit, you have a enough problems as it is without adding drinking
booze to the list. How the hell did you manage to get out of my killfile? Oh
well back into the cage you go, PLONK.

Adding dork to your kill file rather than responding to dork's silly
posts would be a good start.
