  1. Well it seems like that Gmail users are taking over the mantle for WebTV
    subscribers in terms of childish trolls.

    I need to see if Outlook or Thunderbird can block all messages from WebTV or
    Gmail so I do not have to block each one individually.

    In some ways I liked the internet better when there were fewer people on it.

    why would that be? any thoughts? i recently got
    a gmail account and I don't notice any change.
    perhaps it's because gmail is propagating thru
    the gamer community. does seem strange tho.

  3. Most newsreaders allow you to put anything you want in the email entry. It
    doesn't mean the email address is real - trolls change this frequently to
    avoid killfiles and to try to gain extra attention. It has nothing to do
    with gmail, yahoo, webtv, or aol.

    How someone can be so miserable and bored to do trolling is beyond me.
    Making 5 meaningful posts on Usenet per day takes significant time, but to
    troll is a tremendous waste of time.

  4. Please block me individually. I don't want you reading my stuff.

  5. "Miserable?" I can't speak for others, but I'm giggling in glee at my
    imtellectual rants, so I don't think being miserable is accurate, fun
    would be a better word.

  6. Fortunately gmail/google posts are less anonymous
    than aol or webtv posts when you look deeper.

    I agree, I was gone for two weeks and the Gmail dorks are coming out of
    the septic tank.

    Am I the _other_ Gmail dork - pleased to meet you too, Doug and Sam,
    long time listener, first time caller - or do you old-timers really
    perceive such a multiplicity of these Gmail userdorks?

    Yeah, that was my TheRapist's advice too, after she talked me back in
    off the ledge and I stopped bawling long enough to listen. With that
    kind of consensus, obviously you guys are on to something.

    So OK, Vicar, you're posting from gmail too - that had escaped me.
    Guess that makes at least three of us.

    i was wondering whatever had become of you s.c.

    if you block all gmail users, you will block some non trolls too (just
    in case that matters)...

  15. S.C.? Do you know me?

    i only know you from your postings here and on rbr, and i noticed you
    hadn't been around for awhile, that's all 🙂

  17. I have been laying low. The topics do not seem compelling or others seem to
    be answering the few topics as I would. No sense in tying up bandwidth.
