Weight Loss Forum / Low Carb / March 2004Howdy low carbers!
One thing that disturbs me more than low carb pod people is constant OT crossposting. As a long standing poster in alt.support.diabetes, I am sure some of you in this group know me. Sooooooooo as I hate crossposting so much, and I have decided that this group needs my point of view so much, I have decided to join! (and to bring a few like minded individuals in ASD along with me) Of I suppose the constant barrage of postings by either non-diabetics, or those fueling OT flame wars could end. Your choice.

Be that as it may, there are many who (e.g. web tv and Forte Free Agent users) don't have the ability to use a killfile. Then there are those who pay by the amount of bandwidth they use. So, as I am sure you know, there are many valid reasons not to crosspost, beside violating your TOS, and AUP, and in the case of ASD, the charter. Or are you simply dense?

Bandwidth issues is exactly what cross-posting is *for*. Otherwise, users subscribed to multiple groups have to download the same message multiple times. You're *supposed* to cross-post if a message is relevant to more than one group rather than post it separtly. Excessive cross-posting doesn't mean cross-posting at *all* - it means cross-posting to like 40 groups or something. There's *no* reason to do that except if you're spamming - cause there's no message relevant to that many groups. I subscribe to both groups you're discussing. Lots of info *is* relevant to both... the whole frigging reason I low-carb is cause I'm diabetic. Your introductory message to *this* group states your *purpose* here is trolling. That likely violates your own ISP's TOS. You don't have much of a leg to stand on when you complain about people doing what they are *supposed* to do while you're trolling yourself. Rather like Bush complaining about excessive government spending or something. >> I use my killfile liberally.

You're *supposed* to cross-post if a message is >relevant to more than one group rather than post it separtly. You are assuming that the person is subscribed to both or as many NGs the message is X-Posted too, to begin with. Secondly, you are assuming the messages are on topic. The flood of OT flame war posts coming from this group, most certainly *is not*. Plus any time someone from here gets in a pissing match with Chung, or Mu it somehow ends up in ASD. >Excessive cross-posting doesn't mean cross-posting at *all* - it means >cross-posting to like 40 groups or something. There's *no* reason to >do that except if you're spamming - cause there's no message relevant >to that many groups. You define it your way, I will define it mine. I consider excessive to be the *number* of posts. That is the violation of our charter, and posting in violation of our charter is a violation of the users AUP, and TOS. >I subscribe to both groups you're discussing. Lots of info *is* >relevant to both... the whole frigging reason I low-carb is cause I'm >diabetic. I have seen you post in ASD, but in my years there, I can't say you have been regular poster. Be that as it may, notice I didn't mention legitimate posts in my original message here. I referred to post by non-diabetics, and OT flame war posts, did I not? >Your introductory message to *this* group states your *purpose* here >is trolling. That likely violates your own ISP's TOS. My original message stated that I thought this NG needed my point of view. Please explain how that constitutes trolling? Does everyone here share the same opinions on every subject? I think not. If you think I am in violation of my IP's TOS, and AUP, please report me. I welcome your challenge. >You don't have much of a leg to stand on when you complain about >people doing what they are *supposed* to do while you're trolling >yourself.

Most of the crossposted threads are started by the morphing Mu troll, who also crossposts them to sci.med.nutrition A "long standing poster" such as yourself, especially one using Forte Agent as your headers state, ought to have figured out how to filter unwanted threads by now.

MU/Chung is not responsible for this latest incursion. Plus is it irrelevant. I am in a position to KF many, and I have. Just for sh.ts and giggles, after I installed a new HD, and re-downloaded and installed all my apps, I did not import my killfiles. I was horrified. Though I am quite capable KFing all over again, there are many posters in ASD who cannot. It is for them that I decided to join this NG. Plus this group is in desperate need of guidance.
