- Dan went on to show that he must have spent hours looking at old messages
- to criticize just about everyone that posted. The remarkable thing is that
- he had absolutely nothing positive to say about anybody or anything. His
- previous postings have consistently been vituperative attacks on any name
- he recognized.
-
- So far, just about everybody has flamed him, suggesting variously that he
- ought to get a life, or that he ought to fuck off. While this may be make
- you feel better, it seems to have no effect on Holmes.
-
- The only thing that UseNet can do when we have someone whose only interest
- appears to be to walk around kicking everything is ignore him. My suggestion
- is that you not respond to his jibes, no matter how irritating and no matter
- how short your fuse is.
-
- I have never used the Kill file, at least, never until today. Daniel Holmes
- just got added. I believe that we should take joint action by each of us
- placing Holmes in our Kill files. Please post a follow-up and let me (and
- the net) know that you are participating in this boycott.
