As many of you know, Edward/spinoza1111 asked "Ms. Mouse" to remove an
offensive posting dated May 22 which, he told me, was out of the blue,
uncalled for, and would have been considered "sexual harassment" had
he been female. After repeated requests and argumentation, during
which Edward says he was "hounded" by a "lynch mob", "Ms. Mouse" did
agree to remove the posting and apparently has done so.
Edward then sent a reply (which I've read, and consider very gracious
on his part) acknowledging Ms. Mouse's action, and in return, saying
that he has decided (not only because of this exchange) to leave
usenet and HLASM, because he feels it to be "an expense of spirit in a
waste of shame".
Ms. Mouse then replied graciously and for once, a "flame" war
(actually a bully offensive and Lynch mob, according to Edward, who
doesn't believe in using the term "flame" war) was ended. But he was
most offended when I told him of the subsequent posts claiming that
he'd been excluded from Google Groups and other untruths meant to
salve feelings wounded by his vigorous and to me manly stand for his
rights.
I shall not myself reply to any replies to this post and I do not
visit HLASM. This is merely to set the record straight.
Much Ado About Nothing:
DOGBERRY Marry, sir, they have committed false report;
moreover, they have spoken untruths; secondarily,
they are slanders; sixth and lastly, they have
belied a lady; thirdly, they have verified unjust
things; and, to conclude, they are lying knaves.
That has long been one of my favourite quotes, bb. Thank you.

Good.

Translation: this is yet more self-justification from the bloated,
putrid ego of Nilges. In fact, since this is the only message this
poster has ever posted, it is probably from Nilges himself.

The ip is very similar.

Considering that traceroutes for both IP addresses wind up somewhere
in a network belonging to a Hong Kong-based ISP, I'd say it's a pretty
safe bet that "lilith771019a" is that most venerable of Usenet
traditions, the sock puppet.
Laugh you may, Mr. Reedy, but I can't think of anything more manly
than defending one's dick. I know that if Ms. Mouse had ever said
anything as cruel about mine as she said about his, I would have cried
myself into a little ball, and not said anything at HLAS for another
month or more!

Last month, I was able to get Lynne (Ms. Mouse) Kositsky to remove an
out-of-the-blue and very offensive post that would have been called
"sexual harassment" had I been female. This was after considerable
bullying which constituted an electronic lynch mob. I undertook, when
Ms Mouse said she would remove the post, to not post anymore to this
or any other network. The matter was resolved and at that point Ms.
Kositsky manifested a maturity she had not manifested before with a
rather kind post.
I've been asked to quash any rumors circulating that I've been banned
from usenet. Therefore, this post establishes that fact. However, I
will not be contributing anything in the future. It's a waste of my
time.
Edward G. Nilges
Aw, Edward, you really should come back. I assure you that we have
all forgotten what the immature Ms. Kositsky said about the size of
your dick.
Your Pal, Bob
It is this sort of offensive and unnecessary post
which resembles schoolyard bullying,
which makes this group such a failure
and disgrace.
Yeah, Bob! Where do you get off ridiculing spinoza's tiny dick? I
don't think people shold be ridiculed for physical attributes that
aren't their fault.
You need to withdraw that comment.
NOW!

Enough of Lynne's shmob, what about

O that's right, there is no explanation.
This should read "any other Google Group". Of course, I shall remain a
blogger at www.developerDotStar.com and a contributor to the Lamma
Island (Hong Kong) placeblog. In both cases, very mature, hard-working
and sober moderators prevent the sort of behavior we see here while
enabling free speech. I am also joining The Well, wherein people
aren't protected, as they are here, by a coward's anonymity.
I have read the replies to this post but have absolutely no comment
pursuant to my committment to no longer throw pearls before swine. I
reserve the right to revisit this expense of spirit in a waste of
shame to merely read reactions to these events, occasionally, but as
has been the case for the last few weeks, my postings will be rare or
nonexistent, and concerned only with clarification of my decision.

POLICE: All right, we go.

Hey, I merely referred to its size, Tom. I never specified that it
was small! And I resent this lynch mob that has suddenly formed
against me!
incorrigibly yours, Bob G.
You Hitler Youth Nazi scum are allalike, making fun of a man's teeny
weenie and then refusing to take responsibility for your actions!

Anytime we oppose ignorance and deception, we get credit for it, Mr.
Nilges. Stratfordians should remember that. I told you not to let
them run you out of Dodge, so why surrender to the opposition?

Hm. And I always thought it was the offensive and unnecessary
bullying that was the glory of HLAS... a kind of unmoderated
Shakespearean chaos --- tohu bohu, Lear on the heath, the spirit of
jeering groundlings alive in our time. If you can't hold the stage
in the face of attacks from filth in the pit, then, what's the
point?
I'm also under the impression that failure and disgrace is the human
condition. It doesn't seem to bother our glorious American
leadership one bit.
HLAS is the closest thing we have to life before the Social Compact.
It serves an important purpose as a laboratory for studying the
evolution and devolution of intelligence and human discourse.
And so far... it's been safer than actual warfare. If the refereed
NFL is legal, then why not unrefereed HLAS? Which is more
dangerous?
Or have the Oxfordians discovered that the Stratfordians have
Weapons of Mass Destruction. Even if they do, they are no match for
Weapons of Mass Distraction.
Take heart.
"Once more into the breech..." er, sorry, I meant breach.
Woof!
