What hinders you to go on >with the M & D-discussion f. e? There is no intrigue here. Everything is out in the open: Doug is an irresponsible ass who wishes nothing more than the entire attention of this list. He does this through insult, knowing dishonesty (remember all his other personas (which he completely denied, but was so obvious that any ass could see through it)?), and any other form of manipulation that will get him all the attention he begs for. THAT is what is destroying this list, not anonymity. Anonymous assholes can be as as transparent as the named, Doug proved that well. >Mailing-lists are a good opportunity for people who hide behind anonymity. >But it's also a good opporunity to destroy a mailing-list. Again, anonymity is not the issue: It's about bad behavior and list hijacking. That is why I have personally chosen to boycott all Doug's posts for the last few months, and I regret I broke my own boycott. It has proved its worth as this breech has shown. But I will say this: There has been much more traffic over this bullshit than in pure MD discussion, and that is a little sad. Oh Well, David Morris _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com
