Don't you love it when someone attempts to inflame a thread by telling you,
you are wrong as the opening statement? The truth is they really don't know
if what you said is true or not, it's just their opinion yet it's like they
are standing in the doorway with arms folded when you come for a visit.

Poor widdle Ryadia. We wouldn't want to tell you are wrong, even when
you're acting like an idiot. We should be polite and agree with
anything you say. Of course.

I don't think I met a ruder bunch of people in my entire life as the ones in
this group. They fire off a salvo in contradiction of something you've said,
calling you derogatory names in the process and when you retaliate, claim
you are the one getting agro!!! Great stuff.

And while I'm at it... What about the armchair experts who argue so
vehemently, their point of view when highly qualified people in the industry
who are renown authors of respected manuals on the subject... say otherwise?
I guess school is out, eh?

If you can't comprehend basic optics, and find artists with imperfect
or superstitious technical knowledge who happen to misundertnderstand
the same things as you *it doesn't mae you right*.

If Ansel Adams claims that photographs were painted by pixies *it
wouldn't make it true*

Are you trying to imply that they really aren't painted by pixies?
I don't know if I could live with that realization!

Now spam as far as I am concerned is when you post things like "look
at my ass" to every newsgroup there is. What I did is not spam, those
that consider it that have their own mental problems and will not
affect me in any way, plain and simple.

1. It is not up to you to decide what spam is, nor me.
It is my belief though that very few people think
that spam has anything to do with asses.

2. I was writing about cross posting, not spam.
Therefore I don't understand your reply.

3. Make calling other people that disagree with you
"mentally ill" make you feel more comfortable?

4. You still being here proves that you are affected by
what others write.

Aren't "pixies" what Ansel called his lab assistants? ;-)

Well, thank you for pointing that out. I was under the impression from all
of the flames others have gotten from cross posting that it was the wrong
way to go.

Cross-posting is not a bad thing, per se, as long as the post is
appropriate for all of the groups involved. Of course, many cross-posts
are off-topic, trolls, or spam, so a lot of people automatically react
unfavorably to all cross-posts.

Actually it is, if constained to a few relevant groups. Multi-posting
consumes hue ammounts of bandwidth/storage, whereas crossposting
doesn't. So in fact is is encouraged to cross-post, if you are
compelled to do so...

The way I understand it, if you cross-post to 100 newsgroups, the text
only appears once on the news servers; the header line that contains the
group names is only longer.

But, instead we now have threads with 20 or 30 or more spam messages.
Frankly, I don't think any of you have room to talk about my posts. At
least
my were on topic!

But John...
You are a top poster too and that, added to cross poster, means you are
really a bad, bad, boy. Now incorporate the cardinal sin of spamming the
groups - which incidentally no one dropping the can on you would ever, ever
think of doing... And you have what I would call multiple sinning Johnny.

You are probably aware that the only people allowed to have multiple sins in
these groups are not allowed to Spam. Let's face it, John... You'll have to
buy a Canon and become one of the anointed few allowed to have multiple
sins!
