Huh? Care to be specific? I post new here because (among other factors) it
possibly drives away the abusive posters. These very same abusive posters
asked for a digest, which Mark provides. Don't try to suggest that it's
anything more than a case of routine postings. I am strongly against any
type of grey-hat SEO, as my postings in AISE would show.

Stolen? Because the abusive posters say so? I suspect you are not able to
tell apart those whose words you can trust and those who engage in personal
attack and disruption, which drives innocent lurkers and participants away.
Not to mention the obscenities...

The only thing which leads to the impression that there's a "clique" are
abusive posters who change their names and post inflammatory messages. This
leads to suspicion and prejudice when new/unknown posters show up. It's sad,
but one can you do?

I believed your post was genuine. chrisv is just very trigger-happy with his
twitlist (and he's vocal about it).

I take offence only in that last sentence and no, I'm not gay.
