This group

A long time ago now, it was normal for folks on here to be helpful and friendly. OK, there was some flaming, but mostly only to folks who deserved it. Now it seems that everybody gets flamed, or even persecuted, for no reason at all.

This group may have been the "only show in town" at one time, but there are plenty of nice places on the web now, nobody needs to come here and listen to the ranting. This group will slowly die out, as the main perpetrators, who would not be allowed to post anywhere else anyway, folks like Fortenberry and Wolfgang, continue their destructive behavior.

This is a good thing too. Lots of anglers are helpful friendly folks, as are a lot of Americans, and this place just gets us all a bad name.

It's called natural selection. You can live with ROFF, or die without it,
it's your choice.

What a MAROON!

Kick back and enjoy unlimited SPAM and almost zero content is
more like it.

I can't believe I wasted ten minutes doing that. Geezus, I should
have known better than to sign up for the commercial version of
alt.flyfishing.

Thanks for nothin', Tim.

This group has never been the only show in town. You get out of it what
you want, and contributing from time to time helps. You may have done so
in the past, but it's hard to see you behind the multiple masks you're
wearing.

I've seen "natural selection" used many times over the last few years to
help describe/explain how some people manage to stick around here, i.e. some
'evolve' to tolerate it.

I think it's probably a reasonably accurate model, just like some creatures
can 'evolve' to tolerate polluted waters that would quickly kill a Brook
Trout, some people can tolerate more ROFF than others. But any attempt to
make either 'evolved' creature, the polution tolerant scum dweller or the
ROFFian, somehow seem "better" than the "non-evolved" Brook Trout or human
creature that demands more a more pristine environment is, imho, simply
silly ...
