And no I have not snipped yet because it is all on screen and therefore the whole story can be seen. I don't think I have met such 'nasty' people in all my years as those who post on here and other newsgroups. They somehow feel important by making a posting behind a funny name. Of course there are also those who post in the open, but do things off screen, such as the person who sent the RSPCA round to me with reference to my hatred of cats visiting my garden, confusing it with ""CRUELTY"", but they got a short sharp reply :-)) Who are these 'yobs' and why do they do it? Well I spent 2 years in prison teaching prisoners. I have spent a lifetime 'with' or 'dealing with' people in both the Hotel and Industry sectors. I studied Human Psychology and Educational Psychology and I am STILL amazed at what the human species can turn out :-((( However, in general, people when they get older mature, mellow and become much nicer people to be with :-)) Mike -- The Royal Naval Electrical Branch Association.

Snipping
"Sacha" wrote in message . uk... I think we can all be guilty of forgetting to snip sometimes but the worst offenders are the people spamming across several newsgroups. They appear to believe that constant repetition of their barmy army messages will recruit people to their cause and do not realise that in fact, it's a total turn off! At present, someone who posts here regularly - mostly trying to annoy - has decided to carry on a 'chat' with one of these spammers, including all the cross-posted groups and IMO, that sort of person is more contemptible for setting out deliberately to attract such trouble to a group, than the odd troll with a bee in its bonnet or the genuine urgler who has a netiquette lapse occasionally.
