And fuck you. too, BBS denizen! The vast majority of Hermit's
contributions here have historically been cut'n'paste bullus shittus
combined with snide comments; ifnya need any reminder, check both
the list archives and 'Best of Virus' and commence a comparative
analysis. When I adopted his tactics as the only available way to
counter his list flooding, I am condemned, but not him, who has done so
since list time immemorial. Go ahead and filter me, fuckwad! I care
not, since your obviously precast opinion is of no consequence
whatsoever to me. It'll be YOU who are missing out, not me.

Again, I'll address your "points" in chronological order:
1) "Fuck you. too(sic)"? I'd like you to quote me saying something even
remotely similar to you in this thread. Of course, I have used the same
words: "fuck", "you", and "too". The context, however, was quite different.
Sounds like a preemptive retaliation...
2) "BBS Denizen": and this means what, exactly? That I am a member of the
BBS? I certainly read the list a lot more than the BBS, and to date have
posted 2 private messages on the BBS that I can recall. In the last day, my
activity on the list has been far more prolific than my cumulative BBS
activity over the last year. This makes me a "BBS Denizen"... which brings
me back to the point: what, exactly, does that have to do with anything?
3) "The vast majority of Hermit's
contributions here have historically been cut'n'paste bullus shittus
combined with snide comments; ifnya need any reminder, check both
the list archives and 'Best of Virus' and commence a comparative
analysis." Please provide me with some facts to back up your assertion. The
burden of proof lies with you, not me. Besides which, this statement of
"fact" sounds suspiciously like opinion to me.
4) "When I adopted his tactics as the only available way to
counter his list flooding" There is far too much in this clause that is
suspect to me. "his tactics", please refer to #3 above. "the only available
way" sounds like a false dilemma. "his list flooding", again refer to #3
above.
5) "I am condemned, but not him, who has done so
since list time immemorial. ", Condemned eh? Is that what you call initially
polite and increasingly incensed requests by almost all the active members
of the list to curtail your activities? "who has done so since list time
immemorial." Please refer to #3 above again, and further, how can I compile
his activity for comparison, as you admonish me to do, if the activity drops
off in list prehistory? In addition, not having been here as long as either
of you, how can I take your word for it that you posted less drivel than he
in the list prehistory? Assuming I were to research the facts behind YOUR
assertion, I will come upon a list prehistory wall that prevents me from
gathering all the data.
6) "Go ahead and filter me, fuckwad!" I will do so, as soon as I finish
composing this email. Note the first of the name-calling begins in my
general direction.
7) "I care not," and "is of no consequence whatsoever to me." This is
obvious, on many levels. Primarily the level dealing with our requests for
you to tone it down a bit. You appear to not give a flying fuck at a running
squirrel.
8) "your obviously precast opinion" Bravo! For once, you're paying
attention! Keep up the good work!
As far as the missing out part goes, I just don't have the time to get
started on that one. Besides, that matters to me and to me alone. I don't
think I'll be missing out. You think I will be missing out. In fact, in your
subsequent post, you indicate that what I'll be missing out on is your
contribution to the list. Well, if your future contribution to the list is
going to be anything like what I've seen in the past weeks, then frankly
I'll be better off without it. The replies of others to your posts are far
more entertaining to me, contain far more supported assertions (when indeed
YOUR posts contain assertions at all), and just generally put less of a
frown and more of a smile on my face. Not to mention filling up my inbox
less...
Bah, that's enough crap outta me for tonight. I look forward to recieving
less garbage over the next few days/weeks/months... when your daily post
volume drops below the level of any one other person on the list, or your
posts start containing enough material to interest me in, oh say the first
half-page, I'll remove my filters. Not that I expect you to care ;-}
