It looks like the answer is yes. At least, as regards to newsgroups--look at the content of this one! A month ago we had these bouts of name-calling over proposals about deletion of newsgroups, and now we get just out-and-out character assasination of Rich Rosen. Can't you people clean up your behavior, and leave personal squabbles out of net.news.group? A hardly ignorable volume of postings seems to indicate that net.personal_vendetta would be popular, but isn't this the kind of thing that many here don't want to support--and why net.flame was deleted? If you can't deal with someone disagreeing with you without name-calling or name-implying, do you really think you should be expressing yourself in net.news.group? L S Chabot
