Re: Objection rec.knives PLEASE IGNORE if you don't want to see an off topic post

Feel free to intermingle :-)

I ignore bragging, and I expect that if you post on a newsgroup about knives you post about knives, at least initially.

I have nothing personal against Robert, and never have. It's at the point that if Robert posts a legitimate request, it's ignored by everyone. The only response he gets is if he provokes argument.

I definitely don't think you'd lose your account at all. Even if you made it a point to make many more off topic posts and motzarella agreed that it went against their acceptable usage policy, I doubt that you'd lose access to that service.

What will happen is that if people believe you are Robert then they will just add your address to their kill file.

Posting my message has nothing to do with you if you are not Robert Johnson. The fact that you are so pro-Robert has me very suspicious. If I'm incorrect you have my apologies for tarring you with the same brush.

Do you feel threatened by Steve Kramer???

Nah it's okay I don't feel the sarcasm at all, the header information wasn't meant for you.

Just out of interest can you back up what you say with regards to Steve, because as far as rec.knives is concerned he contributes and has been acted above board. One against three, or so it seems.

Charles, I hope that you don;t mind me intermixing my responses with
your message.


Definitely not Robert, I don't need to threaten anyone.

I don't hide my name, or hide behind a bogus email address.


If you read Kramer's bragging about driving Johnson out of business
and his various innuendos about how close he is with the Royal Thai
Police and the Australian Police you would realize that he can act in
a far from rational manner. Would you want a vicious and vindictive
old man following you around?


If you feel threatened then you don't know how apathetic the internet really is. You can cringe in fear if you wish, but it would be a waste of energy.


Exactly


The worst thing that can happen is that you lose access to the motzarella service... big deal, you'd just sign up elsewhere.


Do you actually believe that I would lose my account because I quoted
an individual's own post and even corrected my post when the
individual complained that I had misquoted him?


The purpose of posting "motzarella.org Anyone can contact these guys" has served it's purpose.


Let me in on the secret. Was the purpose to envoke a response from me?
Good Lord, you could have just used a subject like "Ping Chang" or
something.


If you perceived it as a threat then you have no clue as to why I wrote it in the first place.


You are certainly correct.


If you are not Robert Johnson (which I doubt), then you must be very new to the newsgroups, and don't know the history, and don't know what you are talking about.


Since I had an account with the first Internet provider in Thailand I
have probably had more exposure to Kramer then you do.


Your attitude proves that you are not who you say you are.


Who do I say I am that you say I am not?


I have no objection to people complaining about other people, I just respect those that don't do it with anonymity.

If you view full headers you will see that I do not hide behind a gmail account, or use any means to disguise who I am. Can you say the same ;-)


As I said above, I believe that the man suffers from delusions. I
certainly don't want him mounting some sort of propaganda program to
drive me out of business as he did with Johnson.


Regards Charles
P.S. Using the view header option gives you a lot of information.


Charles, I really don't mean to be sarcastic here but I used ARPANET
in the early days so I am well aware what information is contained in
message headers.
