Most of my newsgroup participation has been on the triathlon newsgroup,
but as a keeper of fish, ponds, and herps, I have lurked a good deal on
those appropriate groups. That's not many, but enough to observe that
no matter what the subject, it sometimes happens that something in a
poster's life, good or bad, is so overwhelming that it spills out in
unexpected places. Example: a man sent a note to rec.sport.triathlon at
2 a.m., saying he had nowhere to turn at that hour of the morning, his
little twin girls were sleeping and his family had not yet arrived to be
at his side because his wife was killed on her bicycle by a truck only
hours earlier. I know it was true because I saw him at Ironman Hawaii
racing in his wife's number. On the pond newsgroup a man called for our
prayers or thoughts because his wife and baby were missing and he was
frantic and had nowhere to turn. His emotions spilled over wherever and
it happened the computer was nearer than anyone. It is not as if
someone says to him/herself I think I'll introduce a new subject to a
newsgroup and add a few commandments just to annoy everyone. It doesn't
subtract anything from the group to be receptive and kind. Most
newsgroups digressed on 9/11 for a few days for the same reason: our
thoughts could not remain strictly on their tracks in face of such
overwhelming news. We needed to talk and everywhere was the right place.

See Hebrews 4, here is New Testament Scripture
in chapter 4 telling us to remember to honor God's 4th
Commandment. The pre-incarnate Jesus created
heaven and earth and provided us with the Ten
Commandments. Then He came to earth in human form
and abided by His Ten Commandments. Then He was
crucified on the 6th day of the week, RESTED in the
tomb on the 7th day of the week, then rose on the first
day of the week to resume His ministry (His WORK).
He rose on a Sunday to resume His work while the
filthy churches teach you that His rising on a Sunday
changes His day of rest to Sunday.

Let us strive to enter that rest and honor what God
desires that we honor rather than continue to strive
to hold onto the things that our are important to
our friends, family and ourselves. -Daryl S. Kabatoff

Rodeo Pic #4 kicks ass... or ass kicks. It's pretty confusing. However, it
is a great pic.

Thanks! I only had to watch that rodeo for about two minutes to know
that I never, ever, wanted to do that!

I'm about to put the whole bloody lot of these sudden newcomers into

for those who are old-hats at usenet/newsgroups this is nothing new, but

for
those who havent yet been a part of the community for a while please

indulge me
for a moment while i elaborate a bit on what's happening.

what you are seeing is an attempt at a prelude to a crosspost flame war.
meaning; two sides of two different posting groups respnding in argument

to the
same thread. what results is a thread that will last for months with

nothing
acomplished except hatred, abuse, and foul language being slung across all
groups involed. to show how this relates to what we are seeing here;

1. a topic is posted.
2. someone posts an an attack against the original poster. (this is a

"flame" or
"flaming")
3. the majority attack the the new individual for his attack. (also

"flaming")
4. the poster then crossposts the string to another group(s) that were not
involved in the original string with additional comments designed to cause

the
new groups to "flame" the poster as well.
5. group 1 wonders why group 2 is posting in their group.
6. side A from both groups begin arguing with side B.

and on it goes.

Daryl is looking for people to fight with so he can drag the discussions

into
other groups and get them to join in the fighting as well. then those in

the
aquaria groups will get frustrated at all the "off-topic flaming" going on

and
wonder why it's being posted in their group. before you know it you have a

flame
war.

when you reply to the crossposts you are inviting them into the groups

here,
which is exactly what the person you are replying to has intended to

happen, and
what he is goading you into doing.

if you must reply (which i would recommend you dont in the first place

because
all you do is feed it) please trim the groups to avoid allowing this.

this is not directed at anyone individually. i'm just using this

opportunity to
make an example.

Wouldn't it make more sense to simply not answer him at all? Put him
in your kill file and be done with him permanently.
