I'm not interested in that              My headers are about privacy.       The Slootweg troll brazenly lies constantly when he posts his drivel.              I'm sick of the Slootweg troll's disgusting lies; but worse is that       everyone here has to endure those Slootweg lies constantly as he trolls.              In the body, if you can't figure out it's me in five seconds, there's a       problem since I've posted the same style & pictures for decades on Usenet.              Anyone who exclaims in glee "I finally found you!!!!!!" is an utter moron.       Because I never hide from you.              As for privacy, I also post a lot about efficiency.       And I post a lot about freeware tools, so please, don't sell me short.              However, to your point, my posts are often (very often) about privacy,       where the disgusting Slootweg and s|b and other trolls call me a troll and       yet, they can't point to a single instance of off-topic trolling in a       decade of posting to this group.              To post about how to give privacy to others is not a trolling act.       No matter how much the Slootweg troll & the s|b troll claim it is.              The Slootweg troll is far worse than the s|b troll in that it randomly       picks nyms and claims they're mine - when I don't respond - which I never       do since I think it's revealing that he's gratuitously fabricating these       claims.              If anyone who owns a normal IQ can't figure out my posts, after decades of       posting to the same newsgroups, on similar topics, using the same style of       nearly perfect English, and posting the same style of annotated images year       after year, then it just means they don't own a normal IQ after all.              Because if anyone can't figure out that I don't hide from you by keeping my       headers private, then they're too stupid to be able to add value to the       group.              It's always the case that the Slootweg troll (and in a lesser manner, the       s|b troll) can never add any on-topic purposefully helpful value to any       thread.              Which is why they post their drivel.       Which then wastes everyone's valuable time having to respond to their lies.              > If his choice of NNTP client (Piaohong) is crippled on defining filters,       > especially non-overview headers, then he needs to switch to a better NNTP       client.              Heh heh heh... you think I'm really using that client?              You've seen I have posted hundreds (if not thousands) of tutorials on       privacy. Certainly it's trivial to write your own newsreader, which I did.              My newsreader uses Telnet and gVim (for the most part) so there is no       newsreader. Check out the header now. The newsreader is different, is it       not? And yet it's not.              Privacy is a billion things just like hygiene is where I'm not so stupid as       to use a news reader that can't handle killfiles. My scripts require a       rudimentary match, but I can do that if I need to, so the issue is not       ignoring their posts (as I read everything the Slootweg & s|b trolls post).              I even read everything you post, Vanguard, believe it or not.       I read almost everything on this newsgroup, in fact.              Because my goal is to learn from others and to help others as I can.       For that, the Slootweg troll calls me a troll, along with the s|b troll.              So be it.              In decades of posting, I've only plonked a handful of people, Snit being       one of them, and Alan Baker being another, but I can handle the trolls.              My point is simply to point out that the Slootweg troll is a troll.       As is the s|b troll a troll.              The proof is the Slootweg troll trolled the newsgroup.       As did the s|b troll.              I did not troll the newsgroup.       I simply told the Slootweg troll and the s|b troll to stay on topic.              Is that too much of a request of those trolls for them to comply?       Or must they insist on their brazen lies in lieu of adding value?              Since when is enabling others to garner privacy considered trolling?       Why must these Slootweg trolls and s|b trolls lie that it is?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
