Cmsg rmgroup alt.collecting.8-track-tapes

Brian and Adam,

I strongly advise you to pursue this issue and have Bob Scarborough
SHUT OFF from his newsreader access.

Now you see, Bob will do anything to try to win a flame war- he has
already been disciplined repeatedly on the moderated group he belongs
to- and his personality has been described by the members there as an
"unhealthy obsession" with Usenet flame threads.

Interestingly enough, Bob has started posting again on the group he was
trying to kill, see for youself- so what exactly WAS he trying to do ?


Answer: He was simply trying to destroy the group, because he lost a
flame war.

As far as I know your NIMBY was created februar 19, 2004.
Of course, like in every NIMBY, nobody has posted to it.

Perhaps you've failed to realize that lack of ability to
establish a newsgroup has not troubled proponents of the vast
majority of alt newsgroups.--Adam Kerman, alt.config(January 7th,2005)

like going into a white power group and pretending to be stupid.

Do your own ****ing dirty work, fight your own damn battles... this
whimpering to alt.config to solve your problems is pathetic.

Now you see, Bob will do anything to try to win a flame war- he has
already been disciplined repeatedly on the moderated group he belongs
to- and his personality has been described by the members there as an
"unhealthy obsession" with Usenet flame threads.

And if you ****wits would ignore him the threads would dry up and go
away..

Answer: He was simply trying to destroy the group, because he lost a
flame war.

And you're continuing this idiocy for the same reason?

You make a barky, whine like noise from behind yours.

You know, you're only proving, over and over, that you imbeciles can't
leave a thread alone.
