This hasn't been a boating newsgroup since "Reggie Smithers" re-emerged here. No, this hasn't been a boating newsgroup since YOU re-emerged here. WAFA. *He is really clueless. Nope, just pathetic. Salty and Harry need this "success", it comes from not being able to compete in the real world. |

I've only been here a month, and it's more than enough. At first I thought there could be some meaningful dialog between the sides, so that somebody who is still undecided could learn more about the candidates. I should have known better. Any attempts at serious questions and talk about real issues are shot down by one side or the other, and usually both. Insults are hurled, names are called, and the issues get lost in the garbage. And boating? Almost nothing. There is little to be learned here. And yes, I've contributed to the garbage during the last month, too. No more. If I have a boating question, I may show up again. Otherwise, I'm done. TJ |

TJ Well, if you don't like it here, you won't like it at Chuck's boating discussion board, where hardly anyone discusses boats or boating, and the substitute moderator has a hard-on for anyone who doesn't subscribe to his personal political beliefs. However, if you want to post photos of your grandchildren or your house trailer, it's a great place. Most of the actual boaters here (the few of us who are left) have given up on posting on topic here for just the reasons you suggest. The leader of that sort of posting was and remains a cowardly jerkwad who posts here under about 50 different handles, most of which are plays on the false handle of Reggie Smithers. He's the leader of the Loogy, JustWait, DK group, the guys who have done the most to turn this place into a cesspool. I gave up on posting boating-related topics here some time ago. I'm just watching rec.boats slide into the abyss. |

You aren't just watching rec.boats slip off into the abyss, you're shoving it in that direction for all you're worth. Your posts aren't just political - they drip with vitriol and slime. In fact, your posts are the main reason I'm leaving. You are the worst example of a political advocate I've ever dealt with. A little tip for you as I leave... You aren't doing anything for your cause, except to drive people to the other side. You certainly helped to convince me. I want no part of Obama/Biden, thanks to you in particular. TJ |

TJ If you are changing your vote because of usenet posts, well, you don't deserve to have a vote. As for rec.boats, anytime there is any effort to push it back on topic, the slimeballs I mentioned push it off the cliff. What have your contributions to this newsgroup been? |
