That sounds like getting rid of weeds by keeping them from germinating.
Or keeping the neighbors dog doo-doo out of your yard by using a shovel.
Like dust collection, problems like this seem best avoided at the source!
My God this thread has turned to this? I beginning to wonder why I come here. It seems this newsgroup is filled with crotchety old farts that have nothing better to do then express their failures in life on others. Reminds me of that movie Grumpy Old Men. Get over yourselves!
Yes and they spread like CANCER! You could call them WEEDS!
How ironic. You haven't put me in your killfile, so you're simply not that smart.
Wow, I didn't think you were *that* stupid, but I guess I'll have to explain... You're the one who doesn't want others to hear what I say. My suggestion was that perhaps you could start by taking your own advice. I know it's not as fun as telling others what to do, but it might protect your sensitive eyes.
Are you suggesting prior restraint?
Neither good metaphors for netkopping.
I'm really surprised that you, of all people here, are one who wants others to not read what I (and some others) write. I really didn't expect you to be one of the "tolerant" leftists.
The only group worse, in that regard, is the HVAC group.
There's an HVAC group?? Like rec.hvac or what?
I see four groups, alt.hvac.design, alt.hvac.pro-series.moderated, alt.trades.hvac, and alt.hvac. I was specifically talking about alt.hvac.
I think that the bottom line is that if your posts berate people then I don't have room in my life for them. Not only that, I won't want to read them in the first place. There are far too many other uses I have for my time--and I suspect that the same holds for the others who have expressed similar disapproval.

I don't care what you say. I'm just trying to let your fragile ego know that you come off looking much less smart than you really are.
Then why don't you simply ignore me? Are you that weak? (Yes, I know the answer).
I really, really, couldn't care less what you (more than anyone here) have to say.
I call the terminally stupid, stupid. That's what they are. OTOH, I don't believe I've berated you or Swingman, here. Disagreed, certainly, but that's obviously a problem for most in this group.
As I've told you a few times now, THEN DON'T! No one is forcing you to read anything.
That's fine, the line gets crossed when you (third person) actively try keep others from posting. You're perfectly free to censor what you read. Mob rule is ugly, though.

But, you keep replying to me. Is that what this is, to see who will have the last word? As I said, "you've got a fragile ego". Ok, I'll let you win. You can post the next reply and I won't respond. Will that let you survive with some of your self worth instact?
Do you know what your obligations are as a member of a community? Learn how to behave yourself and I think you will avoid most of the difficulties you are having. Think of it this way: Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. That seems to be where you are running into trouble.
You misunderstand. I'm not interested in avoiding anything if it means having one's POV stifled.
No, I'm running into trouble because people disagree.
You're quite wrong, too.
Passive-aggressive asshole.
Perhaps you would think that. If I were worried about my "fragile ego" I'd wander around like the eunuch the leftists want. Sorry.
If you are willing to join the military service I think they have a program that will help you work all that out.
I think you're nutz.
