Due to the unreliability of our irresponsible liberal media [tm],
Speaking of off-topic posts, this guy cracks me up as the master
of irony. As enforcer of the dfw.general newsgroup, he used to
yank peoples accounts just for crossposting:
<http://groups.google.com/groups?&selm=5ecu18%244sl%40excalibur.flash.net>

Not to mention cancel all articles crossposted to austin.general:
<http://groups.google.com/groups?&selm=gu6A7.88221%24aW5.1070166%40dfw-read.news.verio.net>

And if there ever was a real-life two-faced rat-bastard, his
formal name would certainly be "Chris Bellomy", as evidenced by:
<http://groups.google.com/groups?q=author:bellomy+group:dfw.usenet.config&selm=XvDs8.7842%24JZ6.172084%40dfw-read.news.verio.net&rnum=8>

The best part of which reads:

"My work to keep the noise down in dfw.general started with the
idea that at least in one little corner of our news servers, we
could have a regional group that was actually about its region,
and not about hot-button, divisive [inter]national political
issues. dfw.general is pretty far from perfect, but I think it's
worth saving; it's gratifying to see that others feel the same
way."

In just two years he's gone from being a adamant charter enforcer,
deleting all crossposted articles to dfw.general, to crossposting
off-topic articles in violation of the same charter he created and
enforced, not to mention the charter implantations of all the
other groups he posted to with this post.

You're the best example of scum-sucking low-lifes we have here,
Chris. Congratulations. So much for values, eh?

You forgot to tell me how much you're chipping in to send Mike
to Iraq. Twenty bucks? You know it'll be far more entertaining
than having the same argument over and over again about posting
behavior.

Come on, Steve... Can I at least kick in five bucks in your name?
Just for the humor?

Hey, all evidence to the contrary, he's *not* a thief! Nor is he a loon. And
he's not stupid, either. Just ask him. He'll be happy to tell you. More like
desperate, actually.

Man, you just gotta love a loon like Warts who rails about Usenet minutiae
in config groups while hiding behind the pussy "No Archive" command. What a
fucking NUT.

Cheers,

Dusty

Be careful that you don't trip over all those values you believe
in so dearly.

So gratifying for you, isn't it?

wasteful!!

Sure, the signal to noise ratio is a valid measure of
bandwith. Posting spam, commercial messages, and binaries
are a distraction to the newsgroup, and if such junk are
tolerated, they will swamp out the valid topics and cause
the newsgroup to degenerate into a cesspool of ads.

If you don't believe me, take a look at a newsgroup such
as alt.make.money.fast.

The issue at hand wasn't spam, commercial messages or binaries. It was a
snipping of a few lines of a post to save bandwidth.

Try reading before you start ranting.

What Chris has done is worse. Chris has not only set a lousy example
for others but he has shown no respect for other people who still want
and try to keep within the charter. In addition Chris has not only
shown no respect for the community of dfw.* but has become a problem
to the other regional newsgroups who try and keep their newsgroups on
topic. If Chris has given up on dwf.* charter enforcement then at the
very least he should not become part of the problem.
