From: chewie@trory.demon.co.uk (James Trory) Date: Sun, 06 Apr 1997 21:43:12 GMT Yo! In reply to some people's comments recently that everyone on this NG are bitter and RASSM is boring, I'd just like you all to remember that there are a lot of far worse NG out there. I've noticed this having looked around for another place to post. I've noticed since posting there that Alt.Tv.Red-Dwarf for example is full of extremely bitter, unpleasant whiners who have absolutely nothing to talk about. At least there's always a topic of conversation on RASSM. So don't be so harsh on everyone, because believe me, we're a damn site more interesting and friendly than most other places on Usenet. Now, who's for a game of sabaac? -- James "I'm totally optimistic about nearly everything. I tried to commit suicide yesterday with a potato peeler.
