Unmoderated usenet newsgroups are an anarchy, not a democracy nor an
autocracy.

I hold no particular candle for La Puce, but did anyone notice how
calm and collected the newsgroup became when 'the usual suspects'
gathered up their toys and left ?

Eh? I think you've got a short memory. Idiot nymshifters like
Dementor and Nasty Mike never stopped posting and sodding Puke
returned far too quickly despite her promises. And to add insult to
the leaver's injury, she was greeted by people who should know better.

The group who left in high dudgeon do the group no respect if they
all
rush back in with this interminable nonsense.
Now that 'they' have 'returned' it is to further disrespect the
group
by continuing their vendetta, not to benifit the group with their
(reputed) gardening wisdom !

The group who left in high dudgeon were and are quite entitled to
feel aggrieved by Puke's behaviour. It is totally illogical of you to
state that newsgroups are an "anarchy" and to then witter on about the
group being deserving of "respect" from those who left. The leavers
got no respect from Puke and her posts and behaviour have always
caused anarchy here (and not only in htis ng as I know from
experience).

PS. it is childish as well as lacking in intellect to continue
renaming a person as Puke instead of La Puce.

Personally I think that view is a load of ********. Puke's behaviour
is far more irritating than that of a mere flea: it's sick making.
Puke complained to someone's employer and she went stalking someone!
This is not sane or reasonable behaviour and deserves no respect from
anyone - only condemnation.
