What was "The Accord" ?
What were the goals, and why did it fail?

Gawwy Bosemeier had it up to HERE with all the anti-borg humor. Not to
mention humor in general. So he got some of his utterly earnest fellow
dweebs to agree to shun me and Gregipus.

I'm still screwing around on RAO, and Gregipus haunts other newsgroups now,
spreading his customary cheer and charm. Gawwy still has a stick up his
butt, as you will have observed from a handful of posts he made recently.

I cannot imagine that one can be so moronic to be afraid of you and this
big pile of **** nicknamed "Trotsky".
None of these idiots have thought that giving you so much consideration
was equating to increase your nastiness and malevolence ?

LOL, they were stirring the **** and complaining about the odor... :-D

I guess that this plot has been the apogee of your life, no ?
Don't lie Minus.

"The Accord" was a group of posters here, of whom for a while I was
one, who attempted to curtail George's ceaselessly bad behaviour by
agreeing to ignore him. The problem, as we've also discovered on
aus.hi-fi with Phil Allison, is that ignoring someone leaves them free
to snipe at every post on every subject without fear of reprisal; it
is, in fact, self-defeating. Plus of course not everyone can exercise
the same amount of self-discipline--and I admit to not trying hard
enough myself. So it gradually fell apart. Since then George's
behaviour has improved slightly--I suspect lack of stamina due to age
may be the cause. Nevertheless when you see us periodically lunge at
each other's throats for no apparent reason, be aware that we have
history, of which "The Accord" is part. It's a bit like Inspector
Clouseau and his manservant--we like to keep each other alert.

A group of people who agreed to give another group of people
the silent treatment.

It didn't last forever but it hardly failed.

Anything that reduced your number of posts
couldn't be called a failure.

If memory serves, George was not the only person who was
Accord-ed.

Wrong. The advantage of According someone is that those who
are in the accord have some group support for simply not
wasting time with the Accordee.

There's only one thing to do with PA, and that's to ignore
his provocations as a general rule. It probably won't make
him go away, but it will minimize the damage he does. It
might not minimize it enough to please you, but it will
minimize it somewhat.

A formal accord can help with that.

However, mentioning self-discipline and aus.hi-fi in the
same sentence can be harmful to your health - you may split
your sides with laughter.

Probably another hapless victim of mini-strokes.

Most of the the members of the Accord subsequently
completely gave up on RAO. Smart puppies, they.

The less smart members simply walked in front of buses.

It may not have been Bosey's doing. Arnii was locked up in county for a
while there.

When? I'm still doing it. I forget who was on the
Accord list, so I'm not monitoring its success,
but why do you say it failed?"

Oooh-yea, two blind men (Gary & Arny). :)
