However...and I just know you felt that "however" way over there in Philly  ...to do anything about these posters ("do anything" like smack 'em or post "who gives a shit?" in their threads) rises an ugly aspect of censorship. Or worse...the junior high school gym class equivelent of only choosing the popular kids for the team.
You and I have happily killed time playing vocabulary swordfights that I know left many people cold...as well as confused. (Nick and I have done the same thing, but people hesitated before flinging barbs like "get a room!" at Nick...not so with the two of us. Nick *will* tell them - in his own unique, delightfully obscene way - where to put their suggestion. You and I just shrug and ignore.)
We need to be a little more kind and patient with each other. Buried in the midst of the numbers of people who do flyby posts are a few who just want to play, too, but don't know how.

Oh I don't think "anything should be done about them". I just wonder how many anvils need to fall for some folks to get the message: "no one cares, go dry up in a corner and get a life."
As to "more kind and patient" ... bah humbug and eat my shorts!
Cunty? Moi? Never!
