Car Forum / Toyota / Toyota Cars / July 2007Just kill this group, put it out of its misery
Goddamned brainwashed cons and head-in-the-clouds libs constantly posting political propaganda are like 5 year-olds who keep sh.tting in the pool. If you could think for yourself, you wouldn't be crapping out your idiotic parrotings in the Toyota group. To the rest of you, I apologize for the rant and I hope there's a moderated Toyota group soon. > Goddamned brainwashed cons and head-in-the-clouds libs constantly posting > political propaganda are like 5 year-olds who keep sh.tting in the pool.

Killfile anyone you find particularly offensive, and that should work. However, the ever-reliable Toyotas don't leave much room for on-topic musings. Also, if you ever have a question about your car (Toyota or not), you get swift answers here.

I don't think it is fair to force people to endure the vitriolic and out of control OT political rants and ravings of true believers. Ed S. But here, as with most Usenet forums, the posts are unmoderated. It's too bad, but it really comes down to if you really hate off-topic posts, perhaps this isn't the forum for you. There are lots of other Toyota forums, including MDT's Yahoo group, that one can frequent. You and I both know that OT rants only get the flames going.

Jeez, I think this is the second time this year I've agreed with Scott. The OP got his dander up (That Guy) and then EdSpy took his part. I don't think I've ever seen That Guy's handle in this ng before, so I have to wonder who died and made him the great arbiter in the sky for the group. To me, an infrequent poster in any group really doesn't have the right (except in his own mind) to quibble about how the group operates and what should be considered OT postings. The old saying "If you don't like the heat, stay out of the kitchen" should apply. Anyway, there are subject lines in every post ...and if you're not interested in the subject, you can simply *****IGNORE***** the post(s). >"Scott in Florida" <Justtofakeoutliberals@yahoo.com> wrote in message > >ROFLMAO [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] >Anyway, there are subject lines in every post ...and if you're not >interested in the subject, you can simply *****IGNORE***** the post(s).

No matter what the context of any group, politics HAS to become part of the discussion landscape. But most of what passes for discussions are really some tablarasa personalities acting like O'Reilly, Hanity, Limbaugh. I find many of the OT discussions here very interesting until the 3 or 4 loons drop in for some grade school bully banter.

In other words, you have to a number of searches and mass message deletions. By the time you finish, there's more of the things. Why not just stop posting political stuff here when there are political groups? I am starting to think it's a compulsion or addiction or something. Also, I don't think this thread is off-topic. Any topic that concerns the newsgroup itself isn't off-topic, IMO. Some may disagree of course.
