You need a size smaller for goats, their back legs are skinnier than a
sheep's. Don't you find the beard a bit of a passion killer though?

It only takes one wellie. And he isn't kissing that end.

Yeurkkk!!!. Can we finish this sub-thread now please.

I think that words can hurt and harm people, and that there are some
damaged and easily-harmed people around.

Such people probably shouldn't enter a boxing ring then :-) Or would
you like censorship?

Given that Daniele posted this:
"Yes, there are occasional - *issues*. Oddly, it has some of the same
distinctive features as this one: some genuine mental health issues,
oddball non-UK-based contributors with bees in their bonnets, harmless
monomaniacs, and - well, you get the picture."

and then this:
"I think that words can hurt and harm people,"

I'm just feeling that we might have been trolled.

Check the thread. The quoting's just got muddled up.

I think Daniele is the victim of home decor and obsolete equipment.
But hasn't, so far, been abusive.

But that is a matter of several choices. First there is the choice of
whether or not to engage in the debate (if you can't stand the heat
get out of the kitchen).

That would indeed be the sensible thing.

These things are rarely if ever one-way deals. Other than a certain
pathological Australian, I don't think anyone who posts here would simply
be unpleasant to anyone who didn't show a propensity to give as good as he
got. Even the Aussie is so patently insane that his words are unlikely to
upset anybody.

By harm, I didn't mean being upset. And it's insane, or at least unwell,
people whose well-being is an issue I think.

Then there is the choice of whether to participate in Usenet at all.
Its nature must be clear to anyone who uses it for any length of time.
Nobody as fragile as those you are talking about is going to hang
around here.

If by 'here' you mean Internet discussions in general, I think the
evidence shows otherwise.

And of course it is good for you to get beaten up (in text, not with
sticks). It helps you to thicken your skin, which is never a bad
thing.

I think that's not the case at all.

I agree.

No.

This is an unmoderated group, part of unmoderated usenet..easily harmed people
shouldn't be here.

They certainly shouldn't.

upset me by accusing me of having his goat.

Wasn't there one forum that COULD ban Arny, and did? I know he
wriggles hard when it's mentioned.



Banning Arny (or anyone else) is easy!

I even found out how to do it in Thunderbox now - it's only a 2 click deal!

Don't ban Arny, he's all part of the rich mix.

Yes they do!

I had him binned on the old machine simply to help keep the peace in
here - I had a number of people whining at me about 'OT', 'blogging',
'winning debates' and **** know what else, so I binned them all.

Didn't you notice the peace and quiet? :-)

Anyway, I gave him the 'peaceful option' of being binned again in the
new setup and he carefully avoided the issue, so he's on probation!

(So far, only one **** is binned in this new software, by way of
checking it out....)
