Hi Alan,

Create your own private little club so that only you and those "hungry

engage in whenever you feel like it.

I'd like to know excatly how many pages there are on the WWW by

Why is so much time being wasted even replying to these spammers?
If they weren't so arrogant and had merely asked for their site
to be evaluated (although this isn't really the right NG for
that) they might have learn't something. As it it, they have
learned nothing to improve their very mediocre work and have
wasted many peoples time. There you see, I've just wasted my time
as well.....

Hi REBUS,

I did ask my boss and he looked at me funny. I don't think he knows what
you are talking about or even what CIWAH means.

As far as that troll named Alan, he can infest this ng with his stupidity
because he knows that morons like you will come rushing to save his exposed
cute little butt. You were here when he brought a plague of off-topic posts
upon CIWAH with one single post. "Black September" according to JMY. The
slight resemblence in this thread is purely intentional and we owe it to
Alan once again.

It seems you are behaving in alt.html and that is appreciated. It is kind
of interesting that when Art S. chided you for including all 80+ lines with
your moronic one-liner you responded by saying that "you were not thinking
just then". That explanation certainly sheds some light on the stupidity
and insolent personal attacks in which you have engaged for the past year
or so. I know, you have a reputation as a "troll-slayer" to defend, but for
all practical purposes, you, catnip, miguel and many of the others have
been neutralized as HTML posters.

I hope you sleep well, don't let those pink elephants fly over your head
and drop some of the same stuff you so blatantly drop on this ng.

Say Hi to Alan for me.

Ed.

Good one....

Personally, I could care less what percieved sling his ass is in. I am,
however, deeply offended by the likes of WGS (and apparently you at times)
to insist that he is somehow "enforcing" his beliefs about HTML on "hapless
newbies."

Again, personally, I don't buy all of Alan's comments about HTML, but as
someone who is responsible for not just creating sites, but advising and
managing a large group of people who do, his cautions are foolish to
completely ignore.

Nope. You've been ready that revisionist historian again. Although, I do
agree that it takes two to tango.

Well actually, I was thinking that shows I know the difference between
truely clueless and occasional laspes.

I have no reputation to defend what-so-ever....(Hint: that's why there's a

I sleep well, they are blue, and the stuff you're stepping in comes from WGS

On a more serious note: why are you and yours so critical of this type of

"regulars" or ALT.HTML?

Calling Flavell's anti-Microsoft rantings responsible is like saying
Jerry Springer's guests should be held up as models of civility.

So you admit you're just a gutless coward that likes to take pot shots
then crawls back under some rock leaving a trail of slime. At least
Flavell has the balls to use his real name. At least I can respect him
for that. In fact most every person that could be called a "regular"
uses his real name in CIWAH. Except you. Rather revealing isn't it.

FYI: this spammer seems to be hosted at valueweb.net so
I am sending a cc to their postmaster...

Hopefully valueweb.net has some form of AUP and hosting
a repeat usenet (non-adverts NG) spammer who fails to
respond to polite (posted and emailed) requests to stop
is reason enough to terminate thier account?

There are elements of truth in MS-bashing. Like all jihads (such as yours),
however, one cannot seriously take the "movement" as a whole.

That's funny! The only ones trying to wage a "holy war" are purists.

Hi REBUS,

You are really something. I could barely stop laughing at your stupidity in
your previous reply to me. But I decided to answer because is not always
that you step out of character to ask an honest question.

I looked back at those who responded to earthlink and (AFAIKS) only Johnnie
ego can be considered a regular in alt.html. So I have news for you. I have
chided him with sarcasm in the past, something of the "Oh My God, Horror of
Horrors!" type of response over another blatant spam, which Johnnie hates
with a passion.

As for that other regular, Mr. Schlake, I have also news for you. I have
publicly disagreed with him in the past and have called him names as well.
He stubbornly continues to treat me with respect in spite of these facts.
Let me give you an example of his response to one of my disagreements with
him, he said: "Jude is not a she". OK, so I missed Jude's gender by a mile
and two quarters, do you see any hint of ridicule in his response? any
sarcasm for not checking my facts before I say something? well, neither do
I.

So it all boils down to basic respect for each other. I treat Bill with
respect, he reciprocates with respect. Such a novel idea huh REBUS,
completely foreign to you and many of the regulars you so hotly defend.

Cheers bud,

Ed.
