no info about the show

I am just going to say that I came to this newsgroup to get information about Red Dwarf.(one of
my faviour shows) and I am upset to say that no one has anything to say about the show.

reply to this and say (and although I'm not strickly speaking a
newposter, I onwy just got my bewy own pewsonal account, weally) -
*read the smegging FAQ*, it's crammed with info on Red Dwarf itself,
then read the Primer, which sort of says anyone interested in the
series(es) can (and to a lesser extent, should) post articles that are
witty, original and have some relevance to RD.
If you haven't seen RD, post a REQ for information about where to
see/obtain it in your locale - these are generally responded to quickly
and accurately, even *NEW ZEALANDERS* (close to Fiji) have found out
where to get RD vids from this NG; Elaine, a young lady who suddenly had
to move to Pluto, was probably pointed in the right direction (ie even
further away from Rimmer) by this NG. In fact, if every newsgroup
(>16500 on demon) were to say that its party trick was to belch the
whole of 'Yankee Doodle Dandy', then alt.tv.red-dwarf would probably say
'Yeah, but when I do it, it's class, man'
So...
RTFM, post, and *reap the whirlwind*

unsubscribe to this group and never return. Personally, I love this
gorup, it is the only one I read daily. I have leanred lots of things
about RD i did not know of from here (as well as from the faq and
primer, which you have of course read...right?). If you stick around you
might find that you like this group too, but complaining about it never
helps..it just creates threads like this one that rage on for weeks,
and mutate into really wierd topics. This group may not always be on
topic, but it is always interesting, and usually funny.
My two cents....you don't like them? I don't care ;-)

Firstly, Mr. Scarface sir (I think you might desire some capital letters
in that name at some point in the future - don't mention it), as you can
understand, newsgroups, when they are fresh-faced, gamboling in the
fields of their newly discovered erm.. undiscovered country, they
contain nothing but the subject matter (in this case, Red Dwarf).
However, as you can no doubt, grasp (stop me if I am going to fast for
you), sooner or later (depending on the intelligence of the subscribed
users), the users come to a point when they have discussed the subject
matter - which you would be interested in at this present point of time
- to death or expiry.
The newsgroup then mutates into a different form, comprised of users who
are fans of the original concept of the newsgroup, not necessarily
talking of things directly linked to the aforementioned subject matter.
I think perhaps you would be better off using the Netscape utility and
wandering about the HTTP sites, like thus (quick demonstration ensues).
Now, why not try that friendly greeting all over again?
Now, Mr. Deth, sir,
>Personally, I love this
>gorup, it is the only one I **** daily.
Isn't a gorup a fish?
Forming a relationship with a wet ocean-dweller (is there any other sort
of ocean dweller?), is not healthy for a man in your condition. Stop it
immediately. Apart from the possibility of many marine diseases, just
think of the harm you could do to your reputation. Think of your family
and friends.
"Look," they'll say,
"Look, there goes the wife of the brother of that man who has an unholy
relationship with an ocean-dwelling piscine"
They may even laugh.
So, apply some thought before you launch yourself into a union which you
may regret at a later date.

Oh dear, not another one. Cat, you seem to be hurting peoples feelings

Pardon me for my total ignorance, lack of undestanding, and a craving
for noodles, but what exactly *is* a sig delimiter?
p.s. Have you noticed that you can make the amusing anagram "Del Amitri
Gits" out of "sig delimiter"?
p.p.s. Of course, you have to play around with it a lot first.
p.p.p.s. An awful lot. Cheat, in fact.

A .sig delimiter is the character sequence "-- <crlf>", where <crlf>
denotes a carriage return/line feed. It is not a requirement, but it
is useful because some newsreaders can be configured to a) not dislplay
.sigs, and b) not quote them in followups. It is only possible for a
newsreader to do this if the .sig is flagged by a "standard" "escape"
sequence.
Seeing as you brought the subject of .sigs to my attention, I will
take this opportunity to point out that yours is too long.

Netiquette dictates that your .sig should be no more than four lines
in length; yours is twice that.

A .sig delimiter is -- . Two dashes and a space. It's supposed to go in front
of your .sig, but they're not really needed.

Nope, its two dashes, a space, and a newline.

I presume you mean me. What a load of crap you talk. I've never said anything
to that effect about basic off topic posts, like the vast majority on this Ng.
I make loads of them. What I did complain about was starting a thread about a
differant TV show. It is a totaly differant matter.

Exsqueeze me, Julian, Jules, Ju, Juju babes, but there is no way,
by any stretch of the imagination, that The Cat can be described
as alt.tv.red-dwarf's Champion flamer. He may be the most prolific,
but many other flamers are far more creative. For example, who
can fail to admire the acidic bite of the traditional Cma put-down?

I wasn't aware.
I had no concept of a length limit.
I wasn't here when they mentioned it.
I have a note from my Mum.
It's raining in Hackney.
I'm so sorry. Please forgive me for all my crimes and misdemeanours (or

I have to say, though, It's a bit of a travesty that people can people

He acctually called me "The champion 'Pointless' flamer". And I agree with

I only send out these request emails to very persistant offenders. Since
they usually work, then it makes me less busy cause I don't have to
scroll through pages of quotes when reading the newsgroup. There are a
lot of people who quote too much, but most of them tend not to stay that
long. Matthew was on the verge of being sent this request, but he has
improved lately.

Or who can fail to admire Friday's skill in putting as many rude words
as possible into one flame?
To note an earlier point, 2 losses to The Cat? Impossible, he's always
being told off my Friday for parroting his posts, and I recall that I
once flamed him real big. He never did reply to that flame, but he did
seem to quieten down for a bit after that.

Didn't I? It could've been because CD followed up with his first ever
pants post to that flame and I really couldn't match something like that ;)

Maybe. But they *deffinatly* started on a reply to Nicks post which was
ranting at me. It's even in the a.g-w.i-m-p FAQ =)

Sorry Cat, you know I don't generally indulge in spelling, err,
demonstrations, but in this case you have excelled yourself!
I don't even have to highlight it :-)
