It is my experience of this group/list that if one disagrees with any
of you, Steve and Chris, you all rally round and gang up on that
person to insult and belittle them. This makes the atmosphere quite
hostile, and it would be quite remarkable if it isn't hurting the
community by driving people away. Please stop doing it.
This forum is about a dead thing, a programming language. I wouldn't
make too big a deal about "the community."
If someone's postings constantly frustrate you, simply place them in
your killfile. I've done that to people. People have done that to me.
Tolerating bad behavior and advising people to cope by kill-filing is
terrible advice. It means the bad behavior continues, unseen by
regulars, and newcomers find a place rife with muck, unaddressed. Use a
kill file if you like, but that is not the way the group as a whole is
going to deal with it.
