Ärende: R&R exchanging insults
==============================

 BF>> Being out of Fido feed for about 2 weeks I see that nothing have changed

 JS>      And it probably will not until the moderator decides that a change is
 JS> necessary.

 BF>>  and that you have become a member of the Witt, Ceppa and Smith
 BF>> club.

 JS>      You just have to put people into groups don't you. Is treating people
 JS> as individuals too much work for you?

See above, give up the whining about blaiming the moderator and I will give
up treating you as a group but facts remain. You, Ceppa, Witt and Nelson are
the
only that do all the whining.

 BF>> Just whining over the moderator for the sake of it instead of doing
 BF>> something constructive.

 JS>      I would much rather not be complaing about the lack of a moderator.
 JS> But
 JS> I guess that all depends on the moderator. I can't speak for others but I
 JS> am trying to do something constructive and positive. That being to get the
 JS> moderator to either moderate or find someone that will.

I have told you before that if everyone starts to behave like the adults we
claim
to be we don't need no stiiinking moderator.

 BF>> I have gone through about 480 msg:s and not many msg:s contrained
 BF>> something worth reading.

 JS>      I totally agree. How many of those messages had anything to do with
 JS> Fidonews articles? How many messages contained profanity?

Well then, start to submit articles and we will have something to talk
about!!!!
If you don't, accept it the way it is.

 BF>>  It's Roy and Cepa againt everyone else, Felten against Cassell, you
 BF>> and Smith against Felten, the rest of the world against USA so what's
 BF>> new?

 JS>      Sadly, I don't realistically see the situation changing any time
 JS> soon. The present moderator seems content with the current condition of
 JS> the Fidonews echo.

Here we go again.....start to submit articles and don't blaim the Editor.

 BF>>>> Yours and Rogers obstinacy about not submiting anything is just as
 BF>>>> being as stubborn as he is.

 RN>>> A situation he brought on himself, Björn.  You know me well enough to
 RN>>> know that.

 BF>> At least I thought I did.

 BF>>>> You all have your agenda and none is giving anything up.

 RN>>> That is true, but I wouldn't exactly call my position an agenda.

 BF>> That's BS, everone have an agenda.

 JS>     Agreed. We all have (IMHO) an agenda. Having an agenda is not the
 JS> problem.

And my agenda is that if everyone took control over themself by not posting any
personal insults and only discussed facts and opinions we don't need a
moderator
but that seems impossible.
Look at most other echoes as well, what is really discussd there? Most is about
the
moderator and and some have made that to their job to questioning everything he
says or do like your group is doing here and that I just don't get. What do you
gain
by that?
Give it up and start submit articles so we can get this echo back to what you
want it
to be instead of whine about everything that doesn't suit you. The other
alternative
is to give up Fido.
