What did I miss?

I've been out of RAP for about 9 months due to a crazy work schedule and a
blown up pc. But I reconnected with my news server last week....and wow.

What has happened to our group? R.A. Student is even worse?

Is this a sign of the crappy state of GA or just another example of
unmoderated newsgroups dying out due to the crap some people post?

Where is everybody?!?!?! hello!!!!!! echo....echooo...echoooo

IT's the unmoderated crap..

Just another example of an unmoderated group dying to due to people
with the maturity of a ten-year old brat. How some of them actually
have jobs flying aircraft ...

Don't put yourself down t=liek that 'Bob

Jeff, you were lucky enough to miss most of the Troll Wars. At first
slowly, then in groups, most of us have migrated over to Pilots of
America -- a wonderfully moderated group that simply won't put up with that
sort of crap. See it he http://www.pilotsofamerica.com/

The interface takes getting used to, but I've discovered that by changing
some settings you can make it look very "Usenet-ish". The content is
unbeatable, and posts are (mostly) professionally, on-topic, and respectful.

I still pop in here from time to time, mostly out of habit, and can only
shake my head at what's happened here. It's a damned shame, but all it took
was one mentally ill dude (with literally all-day to post) with a dedication
to drive everyone away. I wouldn't have believed it possible, if I hadn't
seen it happen.

Without a doubt the inmates are running the asylum here. Very few
threads are not contaminated with Max and Bertie non informative crap.
I thought MX was bad, but he was at least amusing.

If you have a kill file or delete button, what's the problem?

Yeah, same thing... I hadn't stopped by for a month..

I downloaded the new posts, deleted Bertie and Maxie stuff, deleted the
spam and deleted the FAILED Aviation Administration stuff and there was
nothing left.

Pretty sad.
