Actually, I think (and have said so in the past) there is. But you need
people willing to not engage the trolls, and all it takes is one or two
otherwise sensible people and you get what we got.
I haven't had much to say, because domesticity is taking hold, and the pond
is frozen.

Happy Solstice, and bright blessings!

My Dad, who sadly died this August was a radio ham - G3AKF/GM3AKF. Just
finished sorting his kit and donating it to the local radio club as per
his wishes.....They are over the moon....

Requiem for old RP?

Ponders are a friendly bunch by nature, and so many of us were very naive
when joining a pond group that we used real... or close to real names... so
the nastiness was far more personal. The old saying out of sight out of
mind, unless someone brings it up, I forget that it is even there. ;-)

The sad thing, in the time it took to get this group created so many
abandoned newsgroups for forums with moving icons & pictures. Personally I
like the fact that I never have to read the same message more than once.
