As it seems to be a dialogue, why not take it to e-mail?


Can you see that happening? I can't. There's an exhibitionist streak to
both of them in that they enjoy being the centre of attention, and this
"dialogue" seems to their way of doing it.


*Me* an exhibitionist?
LOL if you knew me in real life you wouldn't say that!

Col, listen, for the good of the newsgroup. Having this "I will not be
dictated to" attitude is being selfish. There's more reading and lurking
than you think, making out you can do as you please is doing you no favours
whatsoever and makes you look foolish. Have some respect for everyone
else's wishes and ignore the windup merchant Damien, cos thats what he is.


Yes, I know he's a wind up merchant. That's why I ignore the more obvious
goadings to get me involved in a *real* argument and restrict my replies
to good-natured banter. Oh, and I try to steer the conversation towards the
weather when I can.

But at the end of the day, I will reply to whoever I please in the manner in
which I please. In this case the manner is nothing more than having a bit
of fun. If you don't want to see it, fine. That's what killfiles are for.

Respect the wishes of the majority.


You have something of a reputation as a netcop, Mr Overfield.
Now I can see why.

Well said, Rob.

I only hope that Col listens. I don't want to have to killfile him as
his posts are usually worth reading.


Col listens but will not be dictated to as to who he is allowed to reply
to.

Best killfile me, then.

Rob Overfield:

Can you not reply to Mr Damien please? If you want your

entertainment at
his expense, do it in a place where we don't have to read it. You

may enjoy
what you're doing, those who have killfiled him, like myself, do not

wish to
see anything with his name on it. We want to read the WR's, discuss

OBS and
argue the finer point of forecasting, we don't want to read your

needling of
the boy and his responses.


YOU are asking for SERIOUS trouble, mate.

Just try me. Go on, MUSLIM! (Will explain why this is so later.)


John Hall:

Hear, hear. Political discussions are OT.


But NOT illegitimate, as Michael Mcneil has already claimed?


"Joe":

Seconded, I don't want to read puerile rantings my Mr Bedd.


What "puerile rantings" are these, then?:-(

I'll tell you what. It's a nice sunny day, today. Certainly, it is up
here. Why don't you go outside and play with your other, six-year-old
friends?

Why? Because YOU - yes, YOU! - HAVEN'T got any "FRIENDS", that's
why!:-o :-(


Michael Mcneil:

Or not; as the case might be preferred.


But I thought the problem was a certain Lawrence Jenkins? Or is that

a
spoof?


Yes, HE started ALL of last night's "Soviet" threads, I just, *perhaps*
stupidly, REPLIED to them, BUT, nonetheless, SENSIBLY, though!:-o :-(
I DID start the "MP" thread, though - well, OBVIOUSLY.


Jill.:

But I thought the problem was a certain Lawrence Jenkins? Or is that

a
spoof?


already killfiled for that reason unfortunately
I would rather not killfile Col as his other posts are interesting
Its a shame that is spoilt.


What's posts are these, then?

"Corpses do NOT talk". I am sticking up for the half a billion
DECEASED.

So, why don't you go and take that American flag down from the small
balcony of your house, and drop your support for the Slav-hating
American et al. troops in Iraq?


Howard Neil:

Well said, Rob.


What a tosser.

Killed any Slavs, lately, tosser?

You must a Muslim or a Zionist or a Republican or something, TOO.:-o
:-(


Rob Overfield:

Have some respect for everyone
else's wishes and ignore the windup merchant Damien, cos thats what

he is.

MUSLIM!!!

To the MOSQUE, bang you head against the FLOOR, and, instead of HOPING
that the Americans don't come for you, PRAY that the Slavs DON'T come
for you.

Pary, you pathetic Islamist. Pray.

DA, SMERT!


"Col":

Yes, I know he's a wind up merchant.


SO, the TRUTH COMES OUT!:-o :-( :-(

The alliance IS now over, "Colonel".


"Jill.":

than having a bit of fun.


Except few others think its fun


Those are Slav-hating dickheads, then, who would love me KILLED.:-o :-(
:-(



David Mitchell:

Come on Col (and Lawrence for the matter). This has gone far too far.

Damien
is an utter idiot and doesn't deserve the respect or a reply from

anyone.

Go on to SOVIET-EMPIRE.COM forums and say that.


I am big enough to admit that I was daft enough to respond and

provoke, but
I'm not going to bother anymore.


No. You ARE an IDIOT who became devoid of ALL rational CONVERSATIONAL
skills at the age of just 10!:-o :-(

This has nothing to do with the weather, of which there has been

plenty to
stimulate some interesting posts.


Explain this post, then?:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...8873095413cd7f

???

MORON.

I AM NOT AFRAID OF THIS CAPTALISM!!!:-(

It's not about dictating to you either Col, if you wan't to continue
responding to Damien, great, but just find another forum.


Now, THAT does make SOME sense. Maybe we SHOULD do this for our
frequently OFF TOPIC conversations. We shall hence see.

You are the sort of guy we do want on this ng, because the bulk of

your
posts are relevant and interesting.


They ARE.

But MINE about Slavogenesis and THE WEAHTER are NOT?:-o :-(

Remember, I AM ONLY HERE BECAUSE THE WINTER OF 2002 WAS EXCEPTIONALLY
MILD!!!:-o :-(

Incidentally, I have a degree, meet MP's on a one to one basis

regularly etc
etc, isn't that interesting!!!


Good for you. Well done.

Who have you met lately, though?

Did you actually get an EXCLUSIVE INVITATION to it, then, like I
DID!:-o?

Don't get me wrong, I do NOT deny you achievements, just your SHEER
IDIOCY towards ME, as a FELLOW ACADEMIC.:-o :-( :-(


I am NOT happy, people. NOT happy at all.:-o :-(

:-(


D.
