Hehehe.... oh, right!

"I think that all they are trying to do is
eliminate meaningless claptrap like we
see on RAO all the time. If you want to
post rants, do so on this group and
leave RAHE to those who want to ask
serious questions about audio or post
intelligent responses to those
questions." - H.F.

This would be Singh's lame attempt at payback for being taken to task for
the obvious compromises and omissions in his design of the "Jupiter Audio"
speaker systems.

Singh, since you're so knowlegable in this area, why not name all of my
neighbors, and tell us exactly how many asses I've coveted.

Don't be an ass, we don't operate that way. .

After getting about 10 bounces, including sending specific emails to
allow you to show that your email account was working correctly, we
then quit accepting your posts per our guidelines. Once you fixed it
and asked about it, we then began accepting your posts once more.

And quite often a newsserver will send multiple copies of posts, and
the incoming procmail script will automatically pitch any incoming
message with a duplicate Message-Id, so if multiple posts were
received, they had different Message-Ids and so it was sent multiple
times by someone other than us.

By the way, being an asshole is one quick way to get us to
permanently stop accepting your posts. Just ask a few of the regulars
here if you don't believe me.

That comment was referring to your accusation that that "The RAHE
moderators appear to be gratuitously throwing my posts away, again"
and that you failed to ask us directly and instead posted this.

> Want me to foreward the three refusals to you?

I see all refusals, so no thanks.

And the last one rejected was on 9/7/2003.

So quit whining to the folks at RAO, who mostly could care less, and
ask the RAHE moderators first. At times, either posts or
acknowledgements can get lost in the email between you and the
moderator who gets your post to process.

As I mentioned above I have a copy of a rejection sent on the
afternoon of the 7th.

If this is your preferred method of contact rather than email or the
discuss list, then fine.

All that proves is that they left your computer, nothing further.

Yes, but there are other avenues for this. If you haven't noticed, no
in here really cares about this at all, but you have accomplished one
thing, you've ****ed me off.

There is one thing that the folks on RAO are correct about:

You're as paranoid as hell.

The RAHE moderators gratuitously threw away all my posts between 9/3/2000
and 9/7/2000.

That hasn't stopped the gratuitous post-rejections.

4 days worth of posts get lost by *accident* and suddenly start going
through after I start this thread?

What happened to the other 3 days worth of posts that were *lost*?

Why should I be ****ed-off alone?

I guess maybe I should start posting the rejected posts and let people
decide for themselves.

The fact of the matter is that RAO trolls have chased me to a number of
Usenet groups in the past.

None of them have survived in the other newsgroups for any amount of time.

I can think of occasions where RAO trolls had email accounts cancelled
because of their behavior in some other groups.

I met Rod once when I was 16, absoultely charming and brilliant man. I'm

Well it must have done so this past week since Arny said he couldn't get
anything posted for three consecutive days. But then the Eagles did get back
together so it would seem that frost is a common phenomenon in this mythical
place called hell.
