Filter by Message-ID so only the REAL Dave's posts are visible

[Jeßus]

It works. Just saying, for those who wish to see Dave's posts and not
the forger.

Add message-id: {@dont-email.me} to your killfile/filter.

But may filter other users with the same content in their message-id.
(note - not all eternal-september users have the same message-ID)

Your mileage may vary depending on your newsreader. Works for Agent.

I'm not flooding the newsgroup, so I'm not the problem. My frogger's
the problem. And Jebus trick may filter all kinds of people, but not
that frogger.

I just changed view to check for responses ;)

You're right in that it's a fairly crude way to filter, as it takes
out others such as yourself... sorry about that.

And yes, the bruce forger will still show, unless you also filter for
'@4ax.com'. Even more crude though, as it will take out most Forte
Agent users... not that many use it here.

Can you change your message ID? I changed mine many years ago in this
news client, but TBH I can't recall how I did it now.

This filtering is far from ideal but it at least certainly removes the
troll while letting Dave's posts through.

Some fundamentalist Christians use that approach to limit Internet
access for their children. Only pre-approved sites, like the Little
House On The Prairie website, are accessible.

Yes, you are still the problem. Familiar with Root Cause Analysis. The
frogger is going to follow you no matter what ID you use. Simple, he
wants to get rid of you. You have a terrible reputation.

[Dave Smith]

You're siding with a frogging troll now? How low can you go, Ed
Pawlowski. Just because I criticised you recently. Maybe we finally
found the real narcissist of RFC! Criticise him and you have a new
enemy!

[Ed Pawlowski]

You are just showing how dense you are. I'm not siding with anyone, I'm
giving an honest evaluation of what is happening and why.

The fact that you criticize many people here is what sets it off. You
think you are someone special but you are not. No one here is.

I don't really give a damn what you do, back to the kill file. Unless
you change your attitude your frogger will follow you. Steve had a good
suggestion but you ignore that too.

You can't handle the truth

[GM]

Miss Bwuthie's frogger is making her life pretty miserable (for those of you have the various
permutations killfiled)...

To her frogger, I say, "Splendid job, well - done...!!!"

As for the real Miss Bwuthie, her many posts are still the same old - same old, e.g. infantile insults about
conservatives, fat Americans, processed foods, meat - eating, etc...

She's barking into the void, lol...

You just have the shits with me because I called you dense. Just when
you were so happy with yourself.

I'm not special at all. Maybe a bit more critical than average.

What was that? To come back under another name and not be myself? In
other word kowtow to censorship by a couple of trolls? And this comes
from a citizen of the Land of the Free? That land with an Amendment
about freedom of speech?

Oh, the good people of RFC hate trolls so much! Until the trolls
attack someone they don't like. Then they love them :)

RFC: for all your double standards

I'm still happy. I've been called worse.

You have free speech but so does your frogger. You have to admit, it is
pathetic to hide behind the name of someone else. Why can't you stand
alone? Is it because everyone will ignore you? Why do they ignore you?
Because you are critical of everyone here. If you were at a
neighborhood party, people would ignore you too if all you did was make
nasty remarks about others.

You can continue freely posing in any manner but there is no mechanism
for you to have your mommy stop someone from following you. He doesn't
like you.

Oh, we have free speech in the US but perhaps your frogger is from
another country. Maybe report it to your embassy.

What the frogger's doing doesn't fall under free speech. It's identity
theft.

I'm not going to try and explain it again.

Maybe, but I wouldn't be critical of everybody.

There are people here that I don't like. That doesn't mean I'll
pretend to be them.

>Oh, we have free speech in the US but perhaps your frogger is from

They're all from the US.
