Hi! Please move to rec.ponds.moderated as this group has been
abandoned due to trolls.

[snip]

That statement is inflammatory. People still
post to rec.ponds on topic, and there are still
a few reasonable discussions. Telling
people rec.ponds has been abandoned is
a flat-out lie. If you hate it so much here,
since you now have another place to go, why
not go there and leave rec.ponds alone?

I will continue to read and post to both
newsgroups, and avoiding (not responding
to) 99.99999999% of the troll bs, but I'm
getting tired of you trying to frighten people
off rec.ponds. I'm absolutely supportive of
rec.ponds.moderated, but I have no problem
with both newsgroups existing.

NOR SHOULD YOU.

If you want to provide the *information* that
there is a moderated alternative, fine, but
there are better and considerably less
offensive and controversial ways to do it
than the way you're doing it.

And that's my final word on this stupid
subject.

Only to the trolls Gail. This group will always be trolled by the two
trolls with a "mission." New posters wont know what's going on and will
move on. When I go to a new group and see all the trolling they see here, I
don't even bother to post... I move on. Is that what you want them to do?
They may not know a moderated group exists.

Thank you for the INFLAMMATORY false accusation. Did it ever occur to you
my NSP isn't picking up all the on-topic messages you're seeing?

If you hate it so much here,


What makes you think I hate it here? Why would I hate it here? I'm trying
to save others the harassment and slander I've been enduring now for 2
years.... including from YOU today.

since you now have another place to go, why
not go there and leave rec.ponds alone?


I can ask you the same thing.

I will continue to read and post to both
newsgroups, and avoiding (not responding
to) 99.99999999% of the troll bs, but I'm
getting tired of you trying to frighten people
off rec.ponds.


And I'm getting tired of seeing people like myself, Tara, Wayne, and all the
others being slandered, belittled, offended and attacked for no other reason
than they post on these groups.

I'm absolutely supportive of
rec.ponds.moderated, but I have no problem
with both newsgroups existing.
NOR SHOULD YOU.


Now what gave you the idea I want rec.ponds removed? I just want people to
know they can ask their questions in a SAFE place where attacks like some of
us have endured for 2 years will not occur.

If you want to provide the *information* that
there is a moderated alternative, fine, but
there are better and considerably less
offensive and controversial ways to do it
than the way you're doing it.


Less offensive? GIMMIE A BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your calling me a liar was
not only INFLAMMATORY but very OFFENSIVE and you don't seen concerned how
you come across... why is that?

And that's my final word on this stupid
subject.


Good.. then I wont have to endure more offensive posts from YOU!
