Good GAWD...I show 275 posts (and that starts with a RE for what
should have taken a single paragraph, or two with expansion on the
reason.

I know. he (that needs not be mentioned by name) is a plague descending upon
us.

I wonder how many worthwhile members have left us, now. I don't see many of the
regulars around here, lately.

Well, it could be that 90% of the activity is due to the troll's threads,
and most have (wisely, IMHO) decided not to respond to him further?

Could be.

I have an idea! Lets all stop responding to him, and when he goes away, we can
see how many left!

Well, at least I tried.

Missed it by ... that much? g

In my opinion this character is perhaps one of the best if not THE best I've
ever encountered on Usenet. He or she or whatever it is has redefined the
definition of trolling as far as I'm concerned. Absolutely all the
parameters have been met and in most cases exceeded; the gauntlet has been
picked up by some; totally ignored by others; gambits have been accepted and
carried to extreme ends by those engaging; the group has been effectively
split from within; an absolute must to define the success of the effort.
I'm actually quite satisfied with my early decision made when he/she engaged
me on another forum not engage this person. Its been interesting watching
him/her work this and other groups at the same time. In fact, its been one
of the best experiences I've encountered since entering Usenet many years
ago.
I love to watch someone work who really knows what they are doing, and this
character has been fun to watch.
I believe now that some in the groups are finally catching on to what's been
happening and joining those of us who have chosen simply to ignore the whole
thing. Those arguing among themselves about him/her/it/whatever, have in my
opinion simply been fodder for the cannon.
:-))
VERY interesting........and it has been VERY entertaining!!!!

I find that I still feel compelled to respond to some posts rather
than the poster to prevent some misconceptions from spreading. :-))
Like Roger More's films, they contain just enough truth at times to
make the rest sound believable.

I haven't seen you on the "other group" lately although there's not
much going on. Lots of posts on the new app, but not a lot else.

Hi Rog;

I'm back posting again there now that the Beta process is over.
Actually, I've just become an MVP for Microsoft on Flight Simulator and will
be working even more closely with both them and the add on developers
working with the program.

Congratulations Dudley.

Now I know where I can send the bill when I have to upgrade all my
hardware so I can run it:-))

Oh, if it'd only run on LINUX.

Thanks. I'm sitting on an order now for either Hypersonic or Falcon NW for a
whole new system waiting for Nvidia's new DirectX 10 GPU to come on line.
Bea is going to kill me!
:-))))

Its been interesting watching the program progress over time, and its
amazing how knowledgeable some of the end users become after using the
program. You wouldn't believe the knowledge level of some of the simmers. I
helped someone just last week who had a pretty good handle on how to fly a
DME arc. He just needed one little piece of data to complete his "puzzle".
He was eleven years old :-))
There will be some "growing pains" with this new version while the hardware
and drivers upgrade into it but from what I've seen so far working with it,
the potential is unbelievable.
