Are you just mad because nobody wants to talk to you? I never
saw or heard of anybody getting kicked for logging in and staying
anonymous.

I'll stick to Usenet, where there aren't any uptight,
self-appointed moderators.

Ya know Steve, you are missing the point here... IMNSHO, it's the same
thing as people posting to r.f.c. thru Google groups. People use it
because it's there - via their browser - just like the Java applet.
However, people using Google to post sure seem to annoy the hell out of
you (and a few others).... just as this "anonymous" thing tends to
annoy some of the regulars on the channel. And yet, there are no "rules"
saying that people cannot use Google to post either are there, even if
you think there should be? Get it now?

Now.... if you just had "real" IRC software, (where you can set up your
nick *before* you join a channel) you wouldn't have to use the Java
applet and thereby avoid all this aggravation... And there is plenty of
'free' stuff out there for that very purpose, if you are so inclined to
look for it, which I am sure you know already.

So... what's for dinner?

I post through Google Groups, but I don't post very often. When I do,
most of the time nobody responds. I have also gone into rfc chat,
change my name get the hellos, then everybody starts chatting. If I
say anything, it gets ignored. It reminds me of high school cliques. I
was always taught that in a group of people it is rude to ignore
someone. I also think it is rude to kick someone off just because you
think they are not following "common courtesy". If you are going to
kick someone off for something like that then there should be a list
of rules and include that in it.
