"Retic Postings and SPAM"


There have been multiple accusations that the postings of H.E. Retic
are SPAM. The writer's postings are carefully constructed so as remain
within the commonly accepted rules concerning SPAM, to wit:


If this isn't spam then tell me what I have to do to not see it on the forum
anymore? This is just a repeatative process that has been going on for years
and its exteremly annoying/aggrevating. If you had any sense of humanity in
you then you'd post this under the same name so that those of us who don't
wish to see this posted over and over again can block you. Instead you
change your name and post the same thing, i.e. you're sneaking around
forcing people to see your posts. The worst part about it is that you never
respond to posts by people and that's why we don't want to read your stuff.

Please post under one and onlyh one name like a normal person or at least
explain why you keep changing names and thus force us to keep seeing these
same old posts.

Pete


While I don't support Retic's method, I can see why
he might have felt provoked to adopt it.

Not only are those who support the orthodoxy not
open-minded, they are so in the most offensive way
they can find.

If you have a contrary view, you are automatically told
it is nonsense, and ordered to read text books. If you
have, and don't agree, you are told you haven't done so
properly, and ordered to go back and beat yourself over
the head with the text books until you force yourself to
agree. If you refuse, you are an obstinate idiot and moron,
and whatever else, and don't know the first thing about
anything.

In this context, for anyone representing the orthodoxy to
make an appeal for a 'sense of humanity', from anyone,
represents an expectation that must be laughable
in the extreme.

The orthodoxy can blame themselves for Retic's behaviour.
If they want a 'sense of humanity', let them show it to others,
themselves, first.

First off, nobody was speaking to you.


When you post to the public, it is basically telling the public your
opinion. In this case, it is a political one. Gestapo-like
suppression of free speech does offend me.


Then you don't know what you were talking about at all. I have no wish to
suppress his posting. However I have the right to not be subjected to it.
That's why I asked him to allow us to block his messages so we don't have to
see them all the time in the same way we don't wish to be bombarded by spam.
Now, since I have no wish to supress his freedom of speach which every post
I posted to him implies, what is is that is so Gestapo like?



In the second place I have no problem
with him posting here. .But I do have a problem with him forcing it on
everyone.


Just like you have forcing it on everyone?


I've not forced this on anyone. Everyone can block me if they so choose.

By the way, Jack Sarfatti
is another one. Why have you not complained about him?


He's amusing and posts interesting stuff every once in a while. Since he
always posts his name I can always block him if he turns irritating and
that block will hold. Someday I might like to read his stuff. If I do and he
never respods

Ps. I sincerely hope you beat that dreaded that "c" disorder.


What is a "c" disorder?

A very easy solution is to ignore it. Correct me if I am wrong that
it does not take a genius to figure that one out. shrug

That's why I asked him to allow us to block his messages so we don't have to
see them all the time in the same way we don't wish to be bombarded by spam.


Why don't you just get lost?

Now, since I have no wish to supress his freedom of speach which every post

You are trying to get authority to suppress his freedom of free
speech. That is indeed Gestapo like! If you like to live in a police
state, I suggest you look somewhere else.

Just like you have forcing it on everyone?


I've not forced this on anyone. Everyone can block me if they so choose.


Again, Retic just outsmarts y'all, and I hope he continues to outsmart
y'all. shrug

is another one. Why have you not complained about him?


He's amusing and posts interesting stuff every once in a while. Since he
always posts his name I can always block him if he turns irritating and
that block will hold. Someday I might like to read his stuff. If I do and he

So, you have no way of not reading his post if his posts are not
blocked by you. You really have a serious problem. You are not a
king. Mind you. sbrug

Notice how, once again, Retic ignore's our feelings on this matter to the
point that we aren't even worth speaking with? That's what makes him so
irritating.

There is, however, a way to ignore insulting people like you though.
Consider yourself plonked. Too bad I can't do that with Retic.

Lets see what that is in entirety:
- antisemitic comments
- defamation of anyone that complains
- outright lies
- straight spam by any current definition (other than Ernest
Wittke's)
- misrepresentation of even the most simple facts
- nym-shifting so that everyone must see the same message every
30 days or so

Which of those behaviors do you find acceptable because Ernest's
tiny little feelings got hurt umpteen years ago?

Let's see. You have grossly insulted me by acting like a belligerent
Gestapo. Now, you call my post insulting. You must be a bully.

Consider yourself plonked. Too bad I can't do that with Retic.


That is fine with me. You have plonked me twice already. I look
forward to the third time. shrug

I know that you have plonked me long time again. So, I am going to
light a dynamite in your *sshole.

- antisemitic comments


So, anyone challenges SR and GR are anti-Semitic even if SR and GR are
not originated from Einstein. You must be way out of your f*ckin'
mind.

- defamation of anyone that complains


So, anyone challenges SR and GR are defamatory. You must be the most
unreasonable person in the world.

- outright lies


So, anyone challenges SR and GR are liars. So, this is your tactics
to suppress all thoughts. You must be very evil.

- straight spam by any current definition (other than Ernest
Wittke's)


As Mr. Wittke has consulted with the spamming law, he is not
spamming. You are exceedingly sinister.

- misrepresentation of even the most simple facts


Which one is that?

- nym-shifting so that everyone must see the same message every
30 days or so


So, you complain that he out-smarted you.

Which of those behaviors do you find acceptable because Ernest's
tiny little feelings got hurt umpteen years ago?


You are just hurting yourself, Mr. Unreasonable Smith.
