He really knows how to ruin a newsgroup.
You got that right. He is horrible. God forbid you disagree with him, or speak up to him. I have gotten off of 2 of the dog newsgroups because he over-runs them. I guess time to use my filter... |

As mass crossposting is contrary to most ISP user agreements, the best
thing to do is for as many of us as possible to forward some of his posts with headers to and get them to shut his account down. Also his posts bordeline abuse at times. I just forwarded every singele post he posted here. I am sure if they get a few more people that do that, they'll do something. |

Meghan: I have crossposted between here & rec.pets.cats.anecdotes.... If this has contributed to the problem, let me know...? I'm not Meghan, but while crossposting in this case probably isn't harmful, a lot of people read both groups, so they may see these posts twice. I find crossposting confusing because inevitably, some replies go just to one newsgroup, some to the other, and some to both, so you're never quite sure what has already been said. It can create some surreal experiences. -- monique, roommate of Oscar the (female) grouch ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Eros was adopted! Eros has a home now! *cheer!* |

So, he is either hitting reply and changing the subject to start a new topic, or he is intentionally posting "dog training" posts here. The problem is that he attacks everybody with any kind of problem, and claims he has the solution, though he never actually offers any advice. I guess you are supposed to buy his program. He really knows how to ruin a newsgroup. He is the only person I have ever killfiled. Try it, you might like it. |

Oh, me too! The only person. Except this time he's escaped the killfile. I'm going to have to enter his new ID. Sherry |
