  1. I've been reading this group off and on for a couple of months.
    I've seen nothing of use here.....The people that are sincere get
    bombarded by [censored] like JC and now he has his deciples..
    Sheesh, you people better get a real life..
    I lost my weight , no thanks to this group..
    I'm leaving one last message and then deleting this group..I've seen many
    jerks in my life, but this has to be one of the worst for negativity.
    I urge the "sincere" people to get the hell outta here and do it on your
    own...There's nothing to learn here.
    This group belongs to JC and his converted [censored]..
    JC, you can have it...As for me, I've got a real life...Sitting here 24/7
    like you do, is a poor way to live.
    JC, you have a generic answer for everything..
    Eat less and exercise.....My response to you is..
    [censored] less outta your mouth and get away from the computer....There's a
    real world out there.
    This is not meant to all.....Good luck in your venture, but, when it's all
    said and done...It's up to you and only you

    Oh chill out. JC's an [censored] (sorry, no, I meant [censored]), but if you
    take it the right way he can be amusing and perhaps even motivating.

    Lighten up. If not, hey, see you on alt.boring.

    Um, I've just looked back through the archives and surprisingly don't find
    any positive or constructive posts by you. Don't you think it's a bit
    hypocritical to criticize others when you have done nothing to contribute?
    I've been part of this NG for about 4 years now. Sure there are a few
    jerks, same as any other NGs, and us long-timers have our ups and downs.
    But there is also great information and a lot of support and wonderful
    advice from experienced low-carbers for those who want it. You realize that
    your news reader has the capability of killfiling posts from that you don't
    want to see?

    I feel sorry for you if you are going through life avoiding the good
    because there might be some bad along the way.

    Good luck anyway, I hope you find your Utopia.

  7. Yes, obviously a full life that involves challenging people to "meet and
    beat" in cyberspace. Just a tad removed from reality doncha think? At
    any rate, good bye and good luck. You may need it if someone actually
    takes you up on the Kung Fu fighting thing someday.

  8. "All of y'all have been a godsend,
    and even JC has his place here. It's typical of usenet and I've seen
    far worse trolls! At least he contributes and entertains. <G> "

    Let's get real. This jerk doesn't contribute anything. He routinely
    is rude and vulgar and attacks people coming to the group and asking
    their first question. I can see how people would be offended. Why
    should anyone asking a simple question deserve to be attacked? So
    let's not make it worse by pretending that this person belongs here or
    contributes anything other than insults. And why anyone would
    encourage his behavior, is beyond me.

    I don't encourage it, I just accept it. :-)

    Usenet is an Anarchy.
    He "belongs" here as much as any of us.

    I, for one, would not have it any other way!
    It's one of the things I love about usenet is the sheer freedom.

    If someone decides they don't like JC (or me for that matter), most
    browsers are set up with killfiles. I'd suggest they learn how to use
    them.

    If someone lets JC scare them off, then they have no idea what an
    anarchy or true posting freedom is, and they don't belong here!

    Just my 2 cents....

    Cheers!

    It's only anarchy because there are rude and vulgar people who misuse
    it. The don't contribute to the discussion, they only use it to get
    their sick jollies insulting and annoying others. I've seen newsgroups
    disappear from jerks like this. The purpose of this newgroup is for
    discussion support about LC, not to insult people with every post. And
    encouraging jerks by telling them they do belong here as much as anyone
    else just makes it worse. Apparently you confuse free speech with
    obnoxious and vulgar behavior.

    Hmmmm. Now, there's some Discernment.

    I think it breaks down like this, Trader: der Konehead is the Chief Dung
    Beetle. The weaker, lesser dung beetles suck up, excuse and defend him
    because that keeps him off their backs, in much the same way POW's come
    to admire their captors and even to enjoy the torture. "Follow the
    Leader Even if He's an [censored]" is typical of lesser dung beetles. Just
    look what one swaggering failure of an art student did for Germany.

    OM is not a dung beetle at all, but a spiritually advanced Soul who
    truly forgives unacceptable behavior.

    Then, there are the non-dung beetles who have varying degrees of
    tolerance for [censored] and either stick around or split, depending on
    their BSTL.

    Finn had a very low [censored] Tolerance Level and split. I have a pretty
    low BSTL, too and am sort of standing on the sidelines, arms crossed,
    watching the dung beetles and counting roses, deciding.

    But, I do recognise a dung heap when I see one.

  16. "Why take JC this seriously? Cmon. He has a schtick. That's it. "

    Most of the people who have been around a while realize what he is.
    But how about the newbies that show up and ask a question of two and
    get blasted with vulgarity and abuse? How many of them who we would
    like to have in the group just give up and go away? That is what kills
    groups and why I don't think this behavior is funny, cute or should be
    encouraged. If anything, we should all start complaining to his ISP
    about his abuse of the newsgroups.

  20. Learning to deal with [censored] is a valuable life lesson. I am amazed that
    so many people arrive here without having already learned that lesson. I
    wonder what they do in RL when they encounter one. I can't believe that
    they never do.
