That's all very well - but how do we decide who should be in the group kill file and who hasn't quite crossed the boundary yet? When I was posting direct to urg I had the most *enormous* killfile - I couldn't expect all of you to killfile all the people I had killfiled.
And where does legitimate peer pressure end and bullying begin?
