I agree with Mr Wizard. I don't have the time to sort through it all
with a large portion of it being negative. And who ever put that post
about the Annapolis student on this site was just wrong whether it was
trash on his shoe or not. I signed up for the e-mail alerts so I could
read about everything boating not to read the bullying that usually
takes place. The Langley subject was great by the way and I will
probably head across the sound and check it out. I just think that if
people are getting off the subject or razzing someone they should try a
different venue. In the words of G Bush Sr as done by Dana Carvey on
SNL, Boating posts good, Negative posts Bad, Bad. George is a fishman
too. Fishes out of a Fountain.

I joined this group

Well, there is no "joining" of this group - it is a freely
available open Public, unmoderated Usenet newgroup
that doen't require anyone to "join",


Too bad there are no moderators to keep this stuff out.

Too bad for you maybe. Look it, public, unmoderated
Usenet newsgroups are not for everyone - thats why
there is so many non-public, private forums out there.
Please don't bag on open, unmoderated Usenet groups
just because it doesn't suit your needs. Remember,
information generated from these open Usenet forums
are the basis for the data used in 'Google searches'. So
down the road when you google-search "how do I ..."
you may be drawing on information that was generated
from a open, public Usenet newsgroup.


I wonder how many others have left cause of these
problems as well.

Probably a few. Again, public Usenet newsgroups
arn't always for the faint of heart - some have more
thin skin than others. Thats why people start private
forums. Personally, I think the public ones have more
information simply because they reach a wider audiance.
I'm not saying that its "bad" that you may have thiner
skin than the next guy or whatever, just putting it into
perspective for you, thats all (and trying to understand
why you are "announcing" that you are leaving a public
Usenet newsgroup - were you expecting to change the
public or something ?)
