Kenny, for all your *constant* bitching, griping, whining, and flamboyant 

pissing and moaning about other people's lack of "netiquette" (as defined 

by KS), I sure as heck wish you would learn some yourself and:


- STOP quoting all of or too much unnecessary text

- STOP posting sig lines with more than is really required (or hold the 

six-line rule from the URLs on netiquette you are so quick to point 

others too

- and STOP posting your own little unneeded, typically unwelcome and 

unwanted smartass remarks loaded with piss and vinegar for everyone, no 

matter what they were trying to say or how helpful they were trying to be.


Kenny, once upon a time you wrote naught but thoughtful, worthwhile and 

insightful posts. You had earned my repect to a point that I gave of my 

own time to you as a respected peer without question or invoice. Then a 

few months ago you got an actual paid job in Web design, and it seems to 

have gone to your head. You're now acting continually like you are 

without equal, yea, even without peer. I've seen you attack people who 

were not only agreeing with you, but complimenting you at times. What the 

fuck is up with that?


I have, as others have, written you both off list and on to ask you to 

cut us a break  regarding some of the above, and you either ignore us, or 

effectively tell us to go to hell. Enough.


Please, do us all a favor, and either tone it down, or go back to being a 

Pizza Hut driver; we all liked you better then.


I'd like to think you'll take this to heart, given our informal 

net-friendship, but I'm all but convinced you'll simply return the 

assault without making a dent; you may very well even increase the 

behavior which has earned you the trash filter for so many.  I'd like to 

keep your filter off so I can read the *good* things you frequently can 

say. I look forward to seeing the results of this attempt to appeal to 

your better nature.


Kind Regards


Frederico


          ~Your best Friends are the ones who'll tell you when you're 

full of shit.~
