Take it somewhere else!

Many of the posts discussing reorganising r.a.s. cite too much noise as a major factor for segregating the group. Personally, I feel that the discussion itself has become noise - loads of articles and follow-ups that are not really relevant to playing auto simulators. I assume that there is a specific newsgroup for this kind of debate. Why can't the discussion move over there, and thereby thin down the irrelevant articles in r.a.s? *********************************************************************** * Paul L.

Wrong, CFD's must be discussed the in currently affected newsgroup(s).
I quote from an article by Tony Johns (IWCCCARS Project), in which he responds to the question 'Shouldn't this discussion belong in another group'. He replies - 'Yes, it does belong in news.groups, and I have cross-posted this thread there to divert traffic to that group. But questions raised here must be answered as well to present both sides of the question.' I apologise to Tony for quoting his article without permission, but trust that he will not object as been as it was in the public domain anyway. I take it from this that the majority of the threads to which I refered in my original article should indeed be in news.groups? Personally, I would rather follow the discussion there say once a week, rather than having to plough through it all daily when I read r.a.s. However, if indeed it should be discussed here, then let someone confirm this, and I will happily join the throng. regards, Paul. *********************************************************************** * Paul L.

Why don't you take yourself somewhere else.
