   First you bitched at the other members of the group for supposedly not   
   reading and understanding the FAQ of the group (thread   
   https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/alt.anagrams/edh7DVfC_lE%5B51-75%5D)

   Now you are bitching that the rest of us are not dropping enough postings   
   for you.   
      
   When I mentioned your recent odd behaviour - your lack of posting as much   
   as usual - to a certain someone, that certain someone told me that you have   
   had some surgery or been in the hospital or something like that because   
   of your condition (paralysis waist down) or other health problem. So then   
   I figured that accounted for your way-less-than-usual droppage. With this   
   latest little addition you have made it now rather appears that bitching has   
   just   
   become your usual mode, and that you are dropping way less postings as   
   an on-purpose passive-aggressive act of omission.   
      
   Do you really think that it makes sense to make way less postings than   
   usual yourself and then say that alt.anagrams is "mostly dead these days"?   
   That is like not going to the store to buy groceries and then complaining   
   that there is no food in the house.   
      
   The group is what each person - including you - make it.   
      
   How dare you put down other people of the group regarding the FAQ when   
   you yourself have been one of the people who apparently has not read or   
   understood the FAQ since you have flouted its Netiquette rule many times.   
      
   How dare you put down other people of the group regarding number of   
   postings when you yourself have the past several months dropped way   
   less postings than your usual.   
      
   Hypocrisy is a grave sin. See Matthew 24:36-51 wherein the comment is   
   made that a hypocrite will suffer the same fate as a violent person. What   
   fate? One thousand years of mental torment in outer darkness where you   
   will be crying and complaining, and then being thrown into the Lake Of   
   Fire which will separate soul (lent mind + will) from spirit (lent portion of   
   Spirit God) so that you will no longer exist and shall never exist again.   
      
   There is still time to repent and have it accepted. Hopefully you will.   
   God will accept repentance up until the day that Jesus returns. The day   
   that Jesus begins his descent to Mount Olives will be the day that God   
   reads the record of every soul to reckon each as either righteous or   
   wicked and then the fate of each is sealed, or as the tree falls so shall   
   it lie - at that point then there is no longer time to repent and have it   
   accepted.

   --   
   P.S. By the way, also very odd for you to say that alt.anagrams is   
   "mostly dead these days" in reply to Christopher's comment that   
   "less is more". Ha! Ha! Ha! You and he need to get together and   
   work out your opposite extremism to a reasonable middle ground.   
   Get your acts together, fellas! The group can be great if you each   
   do your proper part.
