Declaration of new management; terms and conditions of continued useof these groups.

[Unitary Matrix]

All of these newsgroups now belong to me, forthwith. Therefore,
henceforth, posting to these newsgroups requires permission from me,
which I do however generously grant in advance for all but the
following individuals:

* Adam H. Kerman
* tholen
* J. Edgar Hoover
* George W. Bush
* glyph
* Steve
* Sherm Pendley
* ClassCastException
* KalElFan

These people can submit individual articles to me for approval and
posting, except that tholen, Bush, and glyph are blanket banned, and
KalElFan cannot crosspost articles to both rec.arts.tv and any other
newsgroup. Any article by tholen, Bush, or glyph, or crossposted
article by KalElFan, will be summarily rejected.

HOWEVER, there are a few mild restrictions for everyone else:

* No dissing Star Trek (2009)
* No referring people to webforums that wish to use newsgroups
* No off-topic political crap will be tolerated!!
* Do not insult me
* No peddling Clojure in the Java newsgroup.

The transition of rule should be smooth for most of you, save the off-
topic political crossposters that currently plague rec.arts.tv, and of
course tholen, who will all have to find new trolling grounds. Sorry.

That will be all.

Except:

Now that I've got your attention, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Who is "seamus", Kerman? There is nobody in this newsgroup using that
alias.

 

[Extravagan]

* Do not insult me

You're [numerous insults deleted]. And, probably, another Seamus sock.

Who is "Seamus", Wesson? There is nobody in this newsgroup using that alias.

Ah, a Java fan with an inferiority complex on behalf of his chosen
language?

I wouldn't know. I don't know much about computer programming languages.

It most certainly will.

Is that a threat?

Somehow I doubt the anonymous Google user that started this thread is
quaking in his boots.

Ah. And now we get to the quux of the matter. Cute troll, and happy 2011
to you too.

I hope it's better than 2010 was. Fringe doomed, SGU canceled,
scheduling shenanigans that make those of previous years pale in
comparison, rec.arts.tv overrun by the tholenbot and shitloads of
off-topic political crap, and personal matters that are none of anyone's
beeswax here.

What does your classic unsubstantiated and erroneous claim
have to do with OS/2, Arne?

It was unsubstantiated but very correct.

Do you want me to post links to a dozen or more
posts from someone posting as tholen which could
very easily be machine generated?

I assume that everybody has seen them, but I can
produce them if that will make you happy.
