obliged to unsubscribe from Gen Med.
" I just got sick and tired of having to delete post
after post of non related stuff"
And he refers to major nuisances that have plagued
this group for far too many years.
Well Leo - you are not alone. There are others who
share your thoughts, and obliged to suffer the output
of clowns.
Prospects for Gen Med can only be poor whilst it
permits a very low standard of subject matter, the
domination by idiots and imbeciles, and the malicious
and witless criticism of entrenched gossips.
Sincerely Yours,

Those just emphasised what Todd Farmerie warned him about has happened, by
crossposting you drag in unwanted people into gen-med.

It has taken me a long time to realise that Hines _really_ has a mental

Re: The Nature of the Beast
Let me just add another characteristic of the beast.
The group will not have a majority of its posts be unrelated crap just
because two people crosspost. Certainly they share a large part of
the blame, but blame also falls on those who respond without removing
the crosspost (and in some cases, respond at all to the blatantly off-
topic garbage).
That being said, if there were more people discussing genealogy, then
the proportion represented by the other material would be lessened.
One of the best ways to improve the quality of the group is to post
good material and take part in discussions.
