Wow, I haven't been here in a while. I thought this was a train site. Lots of off-topic messages!!
We do have a message board at choochooauctions.com. Although it isn't as active it is always on-topic.

F*ck you troll and your offtopic troll for website hits.
CS:
Well, we are currently at the center of a very weird troll vs. kook vs. rmr vs. Usenet civil war. Best to disregard the OTness and try not to understand.

That is it you were warned. Hope you enjoy the investigation troll.
Hi Charles
Thanks for the reminder. I had forgotten about your site. I noticed the Trolls trying to bait you.
Cheers

LOL
Man, this is the funniest bit of Usenet truth written here in a long, long time.

No matter what it is, it's WAY over your head, mate.
-- Ray
My take? Well, overwrought emotions are sort of leading some folk to overreact more than just a little. The trolls see that and are leading them around by the nose. I find it all very amusing and leap in with the occasional one liner. Trust me, David, I'd rather be laughing with you about them.
Chill. Just let them go. Discuss what you want to and ignore them. Or engage them. Your choice. If you want to discuss MRR related stuff, do so. If you want to engage them in a battle of wits, remember one thing. They studied for the degree in wit but only half finished their study. Do you see any of them impersonating anyone besides the very few who engage them actively?
Eventually, the trolls get tired and move on. What makes them madder than anything else is when we remove their cross posting without commenting on that removal. Just do it and watch how fast it all dies down. They're showing off in front of their troll mates.
-- Ray
But be sure to cut out the cross-posting to the various Mom's basement dens of pimply wankers like alt.usenet.kooks, etc.
RH:
That should be written in gold letters 5' high and placed on a sign over the Internet. (Maybe then it wouldn't have taken me so long to understand how do do so...just sit back, look around at the desktop clutter, and realize just how nebulous the argument is.)

Yes. I mentioned that but it does bear repeating, Steve. They get no joy if they can't show off in front of their friends.
-- Ray
Ray Haddad spake thus:
Awwwww, you took away his toy, you meaniehead! Give the widdle baby back his toy!
No. I removed your crosspost. Don't you just hate that?
-- Ray
Soory, you failed.
I'm having an interesting problem. An ISP that's to big to talk much with me. And of course me, who's not very good with computers. Using OE suddenly last Saturday _sending_ email failed. I was told it was not the ISP but something related to POP! They gave me another server to log on to. So here is the problem; I never stopped receiving email I just can't send it (on both servers). Both servers "ping" just fine. The connection to the net is just fine. This morning I have received no news except for my test and your reply. So I was guessing another problem however still no news except for your reply when normally there a fifty messages. Of course most are garbage but??????????
Forgot to add that I can send email using Yahoo!
Wolf,
a. Yes, Norton AntiVirus. System check yesterday. b. Windows XP ED2 linked updates c. IE 7 and OE 6 d. ISP in one conversation helped and all is correct e. The amount of saved email in the Yahoo Group that's hobby related would make this a large task and I wouldn't understand the new services. I'm old and change is difficult. Below is the error message if it means anything to you!
Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Account: 'vader.inow.com', Server: 'vader.inow.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10053, Error Number:
0x800CCC0FBear in mind this is the same server and connection that is _delivering_ my email just fine.
Wolf, Later on today I am going to have my daughter hook her laptop up to my account and see if she can send any mail. That would pretty much put the problem on my ISP and not me.
