RE: Spammers Taking Over Omega List

Ok you can go live in Ray's neighborhood.  I'll politely decline the
invitation, thank you.  You  two "glovetossing" gentlemen can go get along
famously.  I guess you must be using old math or something but the number of
posts from  vendors from Bill E. (I'm not going to dredge up a list of
vendors that have spammed this list before) numbered a heck of a lot more
than 1 or 2.

If you want to open this list up to 1 person (because you find it
interesting or whatever) then you have to open it up to everyone -- system
vendors, utilites,everything.  You can't say it's OK for 1 vendor to
repeatedly spam the list like Bill yet prevent others from it.  System
Vendors should be required to post results real time.  Afterall, we don't
want newbies being taken do we?  The rule is once or twice.

And then there are those vendors who ONLY post something useful when one of
their products answers a question.  It would be rude to talk about them now.

At this point you have no factual rebuttal, only a silly opinion.  You
called my post to Ray tripe but actually if you had bothered to read it,
each paragrpah defined a factual point and then proved it.  All my so called
bashing is in fact a list of points that prove my position.  If you actually
read it then it would probably make more sense to you and seem less like
bashing.

My advice to you: ignore the list on Sat and Sun because that's when the
proverbial brown stuff starts to fly.

Brian.

I sure am happy that I don't live in your neighborhood!!!

As stated previously:  When one or two brief Posts from someone who may or
may not intend to contribute something of value results in 30 or 40 posts
containing personal attacks, slanderous comments, and racial &  ethnic slurs
-- something is wrong.
