And Bob, if you also noticed, it's probably the same 6 or 8 posters that do
respond to those labelled trolls by others here. While they *say* 'go away,
and don't come back', that's just a line, as they truly must enjoy the
'troll fighting' to keep it going by responding in the manner that is
chosen.

And honestly, it's pretty hard for me to see why there are complaint's
about it, as usually just by looking at the subject of the thread, it's
very easy to tell if it's an actual thread, or it's some long drawn out
pi**ing match.

I use XNews which has extensive scoring, and have been doing usenet for 15
years, and there are not even any entries.
