That's Usenet for you. People always want to tell others what to post, if
they should post, how to post properly, etc, etc. My guess is that they long
to speak freely of their wants and desires in real life but cannot, so they
do it here. It's super ironic! What I find fascinating is that mostly it's
done by people that have been posting for a long time. You'd think they'd
know better by now. I think their senior status gives them a sense of
entitlement. The reality is that there is no entitlement on Usenet - there's
only what a person allows another poster to have. My recommendation is that
you don't give these people shit. Hee hee.

Well said!!!

There are no official monitors here. Perhaps those that don't like the way
Usenet operates should go to facebook where it is all controlled.

The complainers need to control themselves, not the poster.
