How Ed Dolan and Mike Vandeman came to dominate their newsgroups
"Edward Dolan" wrote in message news:UMOdnVtmLswQfAfZnZ2dnUVZ_qCdnZ2d@prairiewave. com... Well, that is ONE possible solution, but then what would I have to do. Besides, I add interest to what would otherwise be a very dull group. It would not be fair to those who come to ARBR and RBS expecting some entertainment. Perhaps discussions of gearing, frame types, cycling routes and such is EXACTLY what people post for. There a million sites for "entertainment". Why read about the non-sexual proclamations of a self-absorbed individual when I want to know what gearing I should have when visiting the Blue Ridge Parkway? Nope, I cannot believe there are any humans who are so dead that they would limit themselves to what you propose. Either be a complete human being or be gone! I know better than you what is good for you! Who is being limited? With a million websites (and other NGs) dedicated to entertainment, who needs you to post junk? We're smart enough to find entertainment on our own. Here is a place for information we can use and share to enhance our cycling experience. Reading the ramblings of a psychiatric throwaway does'nt cut it. |

Edward Dolan wrote: "JimmyMac" wrote in message ps.com... Edward Dolan wrote: It was never my intention to dominate a newsgroup and I am sure it was not Mike Vandeman's intention either, but yet I do dominate ARBR and Vandeman does dominate RBS. We both stay on our own threads and do not step on other threads, but it seems that it doesn't matter. Others simply go away and before you know it all there is on these groups is Dolan and Vandeman. I think both of us in our separate ways serve as a catalyst for a few others who take us on. Our messages become increasingly contentious and finally we are preventing others from coming onto the group. That is certainly not my intention and I know it is not Vandeman's intention either. But what to do about it? Tis a simple problem with a simpl solution ... L E A V E !!!!! Well, that is ONE possible solution, but then what would I have to do. Besides, I add interest to what would otherwise be a very dull group. It would not be fair to those who come to ARBR and RBS expecting some entertainment. Thanks for validating what I said of you in the past ... Ed Dolan has little more than ARBR from which to derive meaning in his life. The Usenet newsgroup (particularly ARBR) has assumed an exaggerated prominence in his hierarchical order of relevance. The Usenet newsgroup (particularly ARBR) has emerged as the source from which he garners his sense of accomplishment and self-esteem. Regardless of his opinion of the readership, without the lifeblood of the Usenet newsgroup audience to sustain him, Ed Dolan has nothing and is nothing. What a pathetic shallow existence. Pity the cantankerous, misguided, quintessential fool. It must really suck to be head swollen ... HEAD Dolan. Jim McNamara Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota I encourage others to post to these newsgroups. Vandeman and I will stay on our own threads as we have always done. Neither of us interfere with other threads that are not up our alley. Vandeman is far more focused than I am and is almost a one-note Johnny. I am more far ranging but I make it a point not to interfere with on topic messages. I would like to see both ARBR and RBS realize their full potential. There is simply no reason for others not to be posting to these two newsgroups. RBM is the standard we should be going by. It is a very large newsgroup and every idiot in the world is posting to it. It is impossible for any one person to dominate that newsgroup. But whether a newsgroup is large or small should not matter as long as everyone respects the threads. I repeat, I do not step on other's threads unless they are up my alley and neither does Vandeman. Others should feel free to post away to their heart's content on ARBR and RBS. We can never be like RBM in size, but we can make up for it in quality. |
