What has happened to this newsgroup?

Slander, vituperation, pettiness, obscenity - what a poor sad bunch
some of you are. I fervently hope I NEVER meet any of them on a cruise.

This is the reason why I mainly interact with a cruising group that is
in Yahoo Groups. That group is moderated, this one isn't.

I too am horrified by what I see here--I feel like I have wandered
into a parallel universe-- I had not logged onto this group for some
time (several years) and it used to be respectable, intelligent
discourse and useful information about cruising and ships. I can only
hope my children or grandchildren will never accidentally find this
site. I will certainly not be back, so anyone who has a comment
defending this obscenity and ugliness and making fun of my desire for
decency will be writing into the wind. Your only marks will be the
other unfortunate users who logged onto this group expecting to
discuss cruises and cruise ships. I advise those good folks to find
another site to visit which excludes barbarians and perverts. As I
said, this old grandma and music teacher will be running, not walking,
from this site!

How's the weather in Jupiter, Fl Terry? Married? How nice? She's quite
pretty! Tell Phil his sex change is splendid!

I hear you are selling the "Manido", now that's a shame but better now
than facing your ultimate bankruptcy. Maybe I can give a hand! Anyone
who would like to contact Terry can @:

I could use a few oboe and vocal lessons, what's the going rate for
two bit Xristian teachers who make house calls? Keep in mind I'm a
member of the Girls' Club huge wink

I could come by your squatty condo, would that be better?

Considering Phil's advancing age, you two love-homos might think about
heading back to Greenacres, it's a hell of a lot cheaper than N. Plam
Beach County!

There's only one person who's doing it, with the different nyms it's taken
awhile but I've killfiled all his socks. Perhaps that's what you should do
as
well, you do need to realize there's many more millions using usenet who
don't
give a damn about your sensibilities.

Did you use your super secret tracking software to figure this out?

Judging by my own grandchildren, they are probably more savvy about
trolls than you seem to be. It is people like you who go away for
long periods and then won't ignore the heck out of the trolls that are
part of the problem.
