AK you seem to know about it. This is the most bizarre thing I have
seen on this site and thats saying a lot!

One thing about NEFF AJ, we may have our disagreements amongst
ourselves over fishing techniques, *tackle, and approach to fishing, but
let an outsider come in and start on one of our own and things change in
a heart beat.



FYI, we didn't 'come in and start on one of your own'. You guys
invaded ROFF/T (thanks to your sysadmin linking neff to roff/t). In
the very same way that you are a community, we are too. We happen to
be multinational, and most of the more common posters have met each
other at various times. But we are also passionate about fly fishing,
just like you guys.

We only ask that people who join our community (as all are welcome to)
do so _knowingly_ and with a sense of wanting to JOIN, not just
overrun. We would like to preserve our own environment, just as you
like preserve yours. We are trying to get your sysadmin to undo the
connection, but he is trying to increase the amount of traffic on neff
and gives a **** about what effect that has on other groups. In fact,
he is enjoying watching the flame wars, as it serves his purposes of
increased traffic. He's using you guys for his jollies.

It may seem to you that someone has 'come in' to neff and started in
on one of your own, but from where I sit, all this conversation has
taken place on roff between us and a bunch of folks who just showed up
with a different, highly localized agenda.
