Chris,

I have counted to 10 more times than i can keep track of. I have even gone out for a wwwalk in the cold. You are lucky i am being exceeding nice.

You have been told before that you do NOT have to comment on every email. Everyone here is trying to be supportive, trying NOT to hurt your feelings, No damage your delicate psyche, BUT ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. 1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9..10.. Nobody wants to hear what you have to say anymore. Nobody wants to hear you tell Mr Zelinski that any software sucks. I am sure that Mr Z. has forgotten more about software than you will ever be able to comprehend. Nobody wants to hear you tell a long time member to perhaps look for a yahoo geocaching group (that is good advice BTW feel free to use it). Everybody here is tired of your "expert" opinions. When I need a wether forecast that is different than what i can get, I'll call ya. Other than that PLEASE stop. Nobody wants to hear nonsense from the kid anymore. YOU have caused more divisiveness and turmoil here in 2 weeks that any single user has in over a year. With this list as with most others, I can place individuals into moderation mode where NOTHING goes to the list without being looked at and possibly edited first. In 20 something years of dealing with this stuff i have never had to do that, YOU will be the 1st. Congratulations. I have had nothing but complaints from users here about YOU. If you want to be a POSITIVE part of the group fine but I am NOT going to let the nonsense and complaints continue to destroy the group.

I apologize to Mr. Z, and to Mr. K for having to be subjected to such silliness.

John--you're starting to act like me a few weeks ago. I see where you're coming from...but for some of us it is too cold out. Most of us are aware of newsgroup etiquette. Plus, some of the off-topic banter may be interesting to some of us. I appreciate your concern, but maybe the majority wants our newsgroup like this. As an added bonus, I would recommend the Daily Digest option for this newsgroup if you are getting too many messages. However, we still do talk about the Spring Picnic, group caches, etc... Are those geocaching related topics? If they are not, I don't know what are. Plus, what other time do we have other than picnics and group caches to talk about the current events? Thank you! :-)

P.S. If you are really concerned, I'd search <http://groups.yahoo.com>Yahoo! Groups (http://groups.yahoo.com) for a geocaching group.
