A vote has been taken over at eCS-OS2.ORG and the results clearly show
the VOICE! website run, controlled, manipulated, overlorded by and
wussied by Mark Dodel to be the worst OS/2-associated website on the
web today.

Mark Dodel claims he is an honorable individual but his own public
messages prove he is nothing but a paranoid stupid petty little man.
He has banned me and my own subscribers from receving news the the
VOICE! newslist and if he could stop us from visiting the VOICE!.ORG
website he would do it in a flash of the keyboard! Mark Dodel is
nothing but a two-faced money-grubbing anal-rententative big butt hole
of a jerk! We should all be ashamed to have such a person parading
around in our community!

The OS/2 community has reached a new low - so low that they can only be
made fun of, laughed at and giggled under the breath of real computer
users everywhere!

eCS-OS2.ORG is advocating all remaining OS/2 users walk away from
fanatics like Mark Dodel and those behind the ridiculous VOICE!.ORG
website and move to more viable operating systems. We suggest, for
those on the low ecomonic scale, a move to any of the wonderful and
many Linux flavors available for free. And for those with
professional lives, cash in the bank and sizeable career incomes try
Apple's Mac and OSX!

Regards,
Jeramie Schmear
President,
eCSOS2 Organization Inc.

"Supporting the future of the new "VOICES!.org" website and laughing in
the face of Mark Dodel's phony VOICE! website!

This is a very good imitation of a Tim Martin posting. Are you a TM sock
puppet, or part of his team, or simply someone who has lost all of his
marbles?

I hadn't gotten around to looking at your web site. Now that I know that
it's being run by a crank, I won't bother.

It's a pity that we're losing web sites with useful information.
Luckily, we still have the VOICE newsletter, which for a long time now
has been the best source of OS/2 and eCS information around.

Please note the changed e-mail and web addresses. The domain
eepjm.newcastle.edu.au no longer exists, and I can no longer
reliably receive mail at my newcastle.edu.au addresses.
The optusnet address still has about 2 months of life left.

I have to apologise for deleting two newsgroups when I responded. I have
no regrets over deleting the "advocacy" group, since that only attracts
the cranks, but I am sincerely sorry for cutting out the "ecomstation"
group. The reason for this is that my ISP refuses it carry it on its
news server. It is my intention to change ISPs after my current contract
period expires.

This probably is TM, it's not Jeremie. Look at the headers, it's being
posted from a Mac and a GMail account and we all know who recently
switched!

NOTE: it's against my policy to follow up to a troll-initiated thread,
but I thought I should clear up some apparent misunderstanding about the
original poster. He is an imposter. See below...

It probably is TM. I think it's safe to conclude that the original
poster, of this and the other messages in the same vein from today, was
-not- Jeramie Samphere. Consider:

* The originating IP address was totally different from Jeramie's usual
posts.

* The user-agent was running on an Intel Mac (Jeramie typically posts from
an OS/2 system).

* There's absolutely no mention of shutting down OS2eCS.org on said
website.

* The subject matter and tone of voice should be a pretty obvious
differentiator. Unfortunate as the recent VOICE-OS2eCS dispute may be,
Jeramie has never posted profanity-laced troll messages. He's also
quite firmly dedicated to advancing OS/2-eComStation, and would hardly
start sending out rants telling everyone to switch to Macs or Linux.

* The poster signed himself as "Jeramie Shmear".

Conclusion: This is a troll. Don't feed it.

This will be my only posting in this thread.

No doubt about it. Its the newly crhristened MacCrackGuy. The mental
deficient had been quiet for weeks. Guess they finally let him out of
the locked ward. Just ignore him and his trusty ward DTJ. Always
check the headers. These clowns are idiots. Interesting that Mr.
Truthiness hasn't piped in to declare that they are forging his ID.
Perhaps they are all in cohoots at this point. Maybe that is the real
plot here.

BTW none of this crap belongs in here. Not that it belongs anywhere
since its all invented in the minds of pin heads.
