When oh when will this beast of an argument lay down and be still?!! A few
months back, I recall an innocent well meaning post about free sprites
turning into a never ending free for all that produced enough threads to
make a 4 piece suit. Heeeeeeeeeeere we go again!
Paul made his complaint. Lars had his rebuttal. Paul had his redirect. Now
here we are 3 days and countless threads later reading the same crap in caps
no less!
Meanwhile, genuine questions, people who really need assistance and real
honest to goodness news posts get outweighed and overlooked due to all the
"hogging" for soap box sermonizers!
I personally will immediately delete without reading anything further about
copyright arguments. The subject is exhausted as am I! May we move on
PLEASE !!!!!

You do have the right to NOT read any post in this NG....but your missing the point if you think you DO have the right to tell other people to not post. :)

I'm not telling them not to post! Grief!! I'm asking for a little common
sense to know when enough on one subject is enough! Did I not just read a
post of yours somewhere that indicated you were leaving AW because you were
sick of the childlike antics and bad mouthing that goes on in here? Well,
I'm not leaving! Not yet anyway. And I do like to read newsgroups for new
information and tips and word about friends who have had a success or have a
problem. But I grow weary of the fighting and bickering and can clearly see
that posts of "good news" and "fun times" get plowed over by all the
rhetorical junk that only takes up space. How many ways can you say the same
thing?! No, I don't pretend to own the mute button on NG....so, my friend ,
I DO know where my "rights" begin and end.

You are right - I will pull myself right now out of the discussion swamp
and rather enjoy it speechless. :-)
