Then your values surely need re-examination. What you term the "ACF Freedom
Force" is nothing more than a group of users who know what Usenet is and refuse
to accept the concept that some hypocritical, gun-toting, baseball bat-wielding,
dim-witted barbarian can dictate what may or may not be posted in an "alt."
newsgroup. Dim-witted? You bet--a Clueless twit who posts messages such as this:

simply has no concept of reality. Not convinced? Do a Google Groups search in
ACF for "Corliss+guns". The man, if not dim-witted, is certainly senile.
The public posting of his infamous "killfile" and the threats made here to place
people on it in a vain attempt to silence users with whom he disagrees is yet
another example of either, ego run amok or, advancing Alzheimer's. In either
case, the sycophants who blindly support him, based on what he may have
contributed in the past, or because he uses the supposedly magic word
"majority", are doing favors to neither ACF nor Clueless himself (you're simply
supporting his voyage through the looking glass).
What you have termed the "ACF Freedom Force" exists, primarily, because of the
actions of "JC and his Apostles". Contrary to his apparent belief, the initials
have no biblical signifigance.

How many of this group of people "who know what usenet is" would
you say frequently post on-topic, freeware related posts in here?
Hello, are you still here? Where did you go?

Since I'm not neither obsessed nor particular interested in this
idiocy, I'll choose not to, thankyouverymuch.
A lot of Americans have and like/love guns. Whether I (or anyone else)
agrees with this sentiment is NOT the topic of this newsgroup. There
are plenty other groups if you seek a meaningless gun flamewar.

My signature file is not going to change, so deal with it. Or continue to expend
your life-force complaining. The choice is yours.

Well, I'll admit to being one of those to a certain degree. And I'm kinda proud of

Only a "dim-witted clueless twit" would take something like that seriously. And I
don't think either you or Mabbett are privately taking it seriously, but rather are
pretending to in order for it to serve your purpose (trolling.)

Looks like the only results are your sniveling and replies to it.

*yawn* Sticks and stones.

*yawn* (damn, I think I'm going to pass out from boredom- this boy is so tedious) It
is not an attempt to silence users, and you know it, troll. It's simply an effective
way of telling others why I usually don't reply to certain abusive people like
yourself. And if you don't like it, that's just too bad. I'm within my rights to
make such a list public and in fact wish that it became a common convention. You
ought to consider making a killfile list public yourself.
> with whom he disagrees
No, it's not simply who I disagree with, it is a list of people who are trolls (like
yourself) or who are incapable of grasping simple logic.
> is yet another example of either, ego run amok
Your trolling is an example of ego gone amok; my list is simply an explanation of
why I don't usually reply to people like yourself.
> or, advancing Alzheimer's.
Real mature, Picken. Sticks and stones.
> In either case, the sycophants who blindly support him, based on what he may have

Yep, that's a real magical word all right. You sociopathic anarchists always have a
problem with that word, don't you. It tends to block your ability to shove your
minority values and opinions down everybody else's throats.
> are doing favors to neither ACF
But of course, your endless trolling is doing TONS of good for ACF.

*sigh* Sticks and stones.
> What you have termed the "ACF Freedom Force"
A small number of trolls and sock puppets.
> exists, primarily, because of the actions of "JC and his Apostles". Contrary to
> his apparent belief,
Eh? Get a grip. Are you telling people what I believe now? How exactly do you know
what I do or do not believe? Are you telepathic?
> the initials have no biblical signifigance.
Hey Picken, my ISP's newsfeed is temporarily off line and I'm using my
alternative, which isn't filtered yet. That's why your getting this. If you'd like
to take this to EMAIL, rather than continue to pester the group, my address is
unmunged as always.
But of course, like all the other trolls, you will fail to take me up on my
offer to discuss your criticisms like grown people. You will continue to flood this
group with off-topic and abusive spew.
You'll notice that I at least, unlike you and your troll buddies, put the (O.T.)
in the subject header so that others can filter this message out.
Now back to freeware.

You have a broken sig; and yet you don't intend to fix it? Is that
through cluelessness, arrogance or mere discourtesy?

You seem to see "trolls" everywhere, perhaps you're hallucinating.

You're delusional. Seek help.
