Re: New group - net.flame
 Uh, who gets to decide what constitutes a "flame" and should be in
net.flame? Besides, flames occur on every topic. net.flame would be totally
unorganized. One vote against moving flamers out of newsgroups. To me, this
constitutes a form of censorship and I am against it.
 Secondly, please do not use the character - in your titles. It messes up
inews when a follow-up article is submitted. I got the message
"inews: Bad option net.flame" when I attempted to submit this reply
via the "f" command in readnews. (I plead guilty to my own crime here but
it was necessary so everyone would know which article I am following up.
If you want to follow up this, don't try the "f" command or the same thing will
probably happen to you.)
