I don't have to name the usual suspects here, but you have become
SPAM.
I know many of you know much about METAL WORKING, but this is not the
forum for your political rants and mean-spiritedness.
For some reason, I imagine this will fall on deaf ears, but could
you... WOULD YOU, please, take it elsewhere. This has always been one
of the best on-topic newsgroups but a small handful of you are really
destroying this newsgroup.
Honestly, you are... guys (and women) are finding OTHER places to
discuss metalworking as s direct result of your uncaring attitude
towards the TOPIC of this forum. We shouldn't have to sift through
off-topic posts to find metal content, but that is what you've
created.
The hatred and vitriol on BOTH sides is not welcome here.

Its a shame but they tend to use the more popular groups to post their hate.
sad fact of life they want a big an audience as possible.

Without reading the whole thread even that might not be
true. There is usually a lot of "drift" in long threads...
Glean what you can and make good use of your delete and
ignore thread features. It helps a lot :)
