ANNOUNCEMENT: From Nosferatu

Due to popular demand I have given much thought to this news group and have decided that forthwith I am only going to monitor this group with a passing interest. Yes, that means no more posts from me in this group. Papyrus has finally given out the information I desired so the mission has been accomplished. I thank you all for your kind comments and patience, but alas, all good things must come to an end so with this I bid you all a fond farewell. Just don't start posting derogatory comments about me or I shall speedily return and defend my honor with passion. As a last note, please try to lighten up. -- Nos [link lost in import: /~nosfer/index.html]

Spencer may bust you for it :-) FWIW, NOS is actually one of the good guys in the flightsim NG. I think what set him off of the public display from John Wallace proclaiming in a righteous manner (in my opinion anyway) that he killfiled NOS. I really have not ever seen NOS (I think it is a he) like this. -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes.

>Who gives a *** What you think...

I consider sarcasm to be derogatory. Obviously you two dimwits need to read my post again. -- Nos http://www.cris.com/~nosfer/index.html

Who gives a ***

>Who gives a *** The snobbish twits of this group give a ***, that's who. I'm just trying to do them a favour by not being a presence here, but until I receive a little more courtesy from ***s like you, I will stay. :-) -- Nos [link lost in import: /~nosfer/index.html]

No, I think I kill filed him first. What set me off was that I simply came on here and asked what's up with Papyrus and the 3DFX patch. Next thing I know I have these Papy brown nosers swarming over me like buzzards on carrion. I took exception to that and they have seen nothing but my bad side since. And so it shall remain. They will get nothing but derision from me because they deserve no better. You'll never know. :-) -- Nos http://www.cris.com/~nosfer/index.html

You sure know where to hit when a guys down. :-( Are you equating children with fools? I'm sure children the world over would be highly impressed with your sardonic wit. Unfortunately, I find people who resort to cliche's and quotes rather insidious. What's the matter, you too stupid to make up your own one liners or what? -- Nos http://www.cris.com/~nosfer/index.html

In response to the above:-1) No...Im not associating fools with children. That analogy doesn't exist. 2) I thank you for considering me to be insidious. Something I've always wanted. 3) Why make up my own one-liners when there are so many excellent ones available? -- Bruce (at work) "How can I believe in God when just last week I got my tongue caught in the roller of an electric typewriter?"

Self-righteous? Moi?! :-) Perhaps, but really there's only so much foul-mouthed abuse anyone can be bothered listening to before changing channels, or, in usenet parlance, resorting to the kill file. If NOS hadn't been abusive and childish in his dealings with others there would be nothing to complain about. That was the starting point in any case. It's a shame, since IMO he's also a sharp guy, but how to discuss anything with someone who begins messages by calling the addressee "dickwad" (or whatever)? If he's able to conduct conversations in a civilised manner then I'd be happy to remove the kill-file, but I don't see why I should have to look through a bunch of abusive nonsense just to protect Nos' feelings, especially when he pays no mind to anyone else. Cheers! John

Actually I don't care what you decide to do, that's why we've got kill files... -- Eric T. Busch http://ebusch.akorn.net >The snobbish twits of this group give a ***, that's who.

Thank God that goon's gone! Uh oh, I think he heard ;) (j/k) :) -- Dave Bowers

Yea, that's right. Plonk! -- Nos http://www.cris.com/~nosfer/index.html

This is starting to take up the space that the "Corruption at Boot Magazine" posts took!!!!!

>Just don't start posting >derogatory comments about me or I shall speedily return and defend my >honor with passion. As a last note, please try to lighten up. Honor? You crack me up. Why waste all this time and resources defending something so small and insignificant when a few simple actions would increase it dramatically? Tactics, my boy, tactics. BTW, don't leave. I'll have to go find another Monkey to watch. Just another RAS ***, Mike Radler

That's true, but I have lots of honour. Being a Brit living in Canada and all. -- Nos http://www.cris.com/~nosfer/index.html

That really bothered some of you, eh? Believe me, I would never say something so tame if I was truly pissed off. You lot are just too easy to manipulate. Well, it's back to c.s.i.p.g.flight-sim for me. Where men are really men. -- Nos [link lost in import: /~nosfer/index.html]

Well, it's back to c.s.i.p.g.flight-sim for me. Where >men are really men. Hey! Doggone it now, you said you'd stay if people flamed you! I didn't expect to find your buttons so quick. Anyway, If that's what your looking for, I'm sure you could find yourself a good man if you stay a while. You gotta ask yourself... "Am I being manipulated to stay or to leave". I'll stop wasting bandwidth now, Mike Radler

Organization: Concentric Internet Services Distribution: Hey NOS, You don't have ANY honor or honour, or however you want to spell it. So just leave, or just shut up. : : : >Hey NOS, : > : >You don't have any honor to defend, so cya! : > : : That's true, but I have lots of honour.
