7.0 wishlist?

In short, this Twisted might search usenet for mentions of his name, or
might still be lurking, and now he might pounce.

Indeed.

Now none of you others can say you weren't warned.

Those posts are irrelevant here and now. In fact, they were mostly
irrelevant then -- a lot of off-topic attack blather by you, Joshua
and Lew, among others, together with the responses to same.

Discussions of people are not discussions of Java. This newsgroup is
for the latter.
I was referring to the fact that (in my eyes at least), Lew was in part
parodying Twisted.

That would be grossly rude and incorrect of him. As a human being with
feelings and a non-public figure, I am not an appropriate subject for
parody. I am to be either taken seriously or politely ignored,
depending on your opinion at the time. I am not to be subjected to any
form of public ridicule. (That "privilege" is reserved for the shrubs,
Nixons, and other politicians. :))

Read the archives of c.l.j.p of around 1.5-2 years ago, especially those
posts from someone whose first alias is Twisted.

This thread did not involve me until you decided, with this post, to
drag me into it. Why did you do such a thing, knowing how certain it
was to send it veering off-topic into flamewar territory? Are you a
masochist? Or a terrorist who thinks destroying cljp will somehow
appease his bloodthirsty patriarchal god and make him a heroic martyr?

Error, Lew: I (as a subject) am off-topic in this newsgroup.

Error, Lew: I am not an appropriate target for parody. It is incorrect
to subject me to public ridicule. I am not a politician or other
public figure, nor a non-human entity without feelings. Grow a
conscience.
I was completely parodying Harold and anyone "else" who uses that phrase.

Error, Lew: Neither I nor Harols are appropriate targets for parody.
It is incorrect to subject either to public ridicule. I am not a
politician or other public figure, and to the best of my knowledge
neither is he. Nor am I a non-human entity without feelings, and if
Harold is, they have had a breakthrough in AI and we're probably all
doomed. (Especially if any human is stupid enough to *piss off* the
newborn but soon to be uber-powerful AI! We're in "do not tease happy
fun ball" territory in that case. Seriously.)

Error, Joshua: I (as a subject) am not on-topic here.

Error, Lew: I am not an appropriate target for such treatment. Find a
politician to parody or something. Leave me alone.
I don't see how Twisted is even relevant here, sorry.

He isn't. They have a long-standing grudge against me for non-Java-
related reasons and feel the need to randomly and obliquely bring that
old dispute up in irrelevant places for some stupid reason or another.
The closest I'd come was to suggest that you'd
clicked "Take A Crap All Over This And Send" in your news software,
clearly a tongue-in-cheek suggestion and one that does not say anything
about your character, intelligence, or competence.

A waste. Lew, Joshua, and their ilk have no sense of humor. As a
general rule, you need to be a human being to have a sense of humor.
(Although there has been some research suggesting that chimpanzees
actually have a rudimentary one, comparable to a three-year-old's --
slapstick stuff like slipping on a banana peel and falling on your
arse, and anything involving farting or other bodily functions, may be
uproariously funny to them, but normally not much else will be.)

Error, Joshua: I (as a subject) am not on-topic here.

Error, Lew: I am not a politician. Do not parody me in public.
if users of that phrase need parodying for some reason beyond my ken

They don't. Only politicians, and twits like Lew and Joshua, need
parodying, and for reasons that are not beyond anyone's ken except
theirs. :p

But it is not Lew that makes people laugh at you - you do that
all by yourself !

But your name is Paul.

No, it is not.

Stop lying about me, and stop lying about him. He probably doesn't
like it any more than I do, and whatever I may have done (in your
opinion!) to deserve your wrath, he is but an innocent bystander.
(And, apparently, a dead one, hence in no shape to speak up in his own

Did that type of giving order succeed last time you tried ?

DO NOT POST WHILE I AM STILL CATCHING UP. I am currently on the archives
from around 1980. Please hold of on posting for the next two months
while I get up to this point.
</parody>

We have no obligation to wait around while you catch up. You have no
more right to tell us what to do than we have to tell you.

Class instruction is not brought down to the level of the slowest
student. Racers do not run only as fast as the slowest runner. Postings
are not done at the rate of the slowest reader. If you can't stand the
heat, get out of the kitchen.

I most likely get far more messages (between email and newsgroup
postings) in a day then you do, yet I have no problems keeping up with
it all. I know people who get orders of magnitudes more than I and these
people are keeping up without a problem. If you're complaining about our
posting rates, learn to read faster. If you have too much information,
get rid of some of it.

And don't try to bring the group to your level; bring yourself to the
group's level.

AND STOP BLOODY SHOUTING!

A more general question:

Has one Usenet poster, giving orders to another about where and
when to post, ever been obeyed?

Do not misquote me again. Your post contained supposed "quoted
material" that did not occur in the post that you followed up to nor
summarize material that did. That is incorrect. Stop being dishonest.

You're the crazy one.
