allow
off topic posts. NO EXCEPTIONS! I would ask that any off topic posts, other than to
remind the person doing the posting, not be replied to.

During this time I will post ONLY Patriot or football related articles.

Is this fair?

unnecessary, again, as I and most others have voiced, it isn't really
about censorship, but presentation.

I disagree! Personally the ONLY reason I posted many of the OT posts was to give my side
a chance to be heard. We got one side from others and I defended my side.
But I said I will with hold any and all OT posts for the rest of this month.
Please see my comments below..................

you want to use this place as your
private soapbox, much to my disfavor and many others(tough *** for us
its Usenet!), its your prerogative. but if you truly feel you are a
member of this group, then any civil, and above all considerate man,
secure in his ideology, would give us the simple choice to filter out
your particular brand of noise.

as for the reason you state, somewhere is this thread, to keep changing
is because Professor is bugging you,

it doesnt really bug me, its done to irritate him, which apparently it did!
payback is a bitch! he gives me *** I change my ID, real simple.


I don't get that. all you have to
do is use a filter for him and that's that. its not like he constantly
changes his name to circumvent your's or anyone else's filters. I ignore
his crap as well, but 2 things about his presentation, and others like
him expressing political passions in this Patriots specific forum, is
again, A, he keeps the same name and B, his frequency of political
posting is no where near yours. fact is, all the others together don't
add up to you, and again I can filter them out with ease. and if I could
dream, in a good world all those that post off topic in here would
thoughtfully use the preface OT as well, then my filters could be really
specific.

professor has never posted a football or patriot post.
all he ever did/does is whine and complain, call people names................


but again, to set up the above situation where if others OT post then I
prove my point and am again free to be the inconsiderate zealot is
nonsensical and a unnecessary. chose a name to talk Patriots, and one
for your alter ego the political zealot and be done with it. what's so
hard about that. if you feel a need to change every month or so, so be
it. we can deal with that, but everyday. you and I both know the purpose
for this is pure malice. and data mining, don't give me that crap. the
fact is they can only data mine a legitimate address and as you have
consistently proven you do everything possible to circumvent this, to
the point of overkill.

I think this has been hashed and rehashed one time too many already.
I havent posted anything off topic for 3 days now, but still others do.
But I will stick to my word and not do any OT posts for the rest of the month AND if you
and the other people in this news group appreciate my effort and dont give me any more
crap, I will continue to be a good citizen of this news group.
I want to participate, and I invite you to respond to my patriot articles and posts.



what boggles my mind is why you can't be a reasonable man, but then,
that is the pint of a zealot I guess, witness the Sunni and Shiites. but
for reference, I think you would find others more prone to listen to
your propaganda if they thought you actually gave a *** about anyone
else but yourself! give it a try for a while ........

where have you been the last 3 days??????
