More questions on VFR flight following.

Could somebody please explain to me why anybody responds to Mxsmanic's
messages? I killfiled him long ago, but I can't filter the responses to
his messages that clutter these forums.

Wrong question.

What we really need to know is why posters feel compelled to keep telling
him what he (and we) already know. The clutter isn't from responses to his
posts -- it's the off-topic responses to HIS on-topic (if incorrect)
responses that are cluttering the forums.

No you have no experience in flying so you have no frame of reference to
say you enjoy it. As a matter of fact you have stated here many many
times that you don't like many if not most of the sensory inputs you
would have to put up with to fly.

So what you like to do is simulate flying and guess what? That activity
has its very own newsgroup.

Off-topic responses to HIS on-topic (if incorrect) responses are still
responses to his posts.

piece of ****.

Because it's fun? That's why I do it anyway.

Like this one is , you mean?

Although they are posted in reaction to MX's posts, I would hardly call them
"responses" in the traditional sense. For some they seem more like an
involuntary reaction.

Posting "f&ckwit!" after every MX post, for example, could be done more
efficiently by a computer program.

So could your drivel, fjukkwit.

It'd have more personality as well.

Some should improve their self control.

There are computer programs that can efficiently block his messages. Those
that use these forums for the intended purpose should use those programs.
Mxsmanic would be like the tree falling in the woods that nobody could hear.

It is for this reason that I've gone back to using my ISP for access to
Usenet, rather than Google Groups. I honestly miss some of the nicer
features of GG, but it sure is nice to have a respectfully cordial group
again -- even if it is artificially attained with a killfile.

And, actually, I've eliminated MX's tormentors, and left him be, for now.
He, at least, occasionally asks a good question.
