Don't like it? Don't read it!  There are so many good books out there.

The guys who post these ranting arguments apparently believe that we all care what they have to say (or else they would just PM each other, right?)  I have a modest proposition:

STOP READING THEIR POSTS

In case you're wondering, egotists love seeing how many "reads" their posts get.  Obviously Dingus doesn't want to throttle this nonsense, but we as a community can remove the reward from the equation by NEVER reading posts by the offending individuals.

In essence, this is a very old-fashioned form of community response to unacceptable behavior, called shunning.  See the link below.  It's usually practiced by religious groups, but I see no reason why we can't cyber-shun anti-social offenders here.

If anybody has a better suggestion, make it.  Otherwise, stop reading their posts.

and I'm far from an egotist. This is some kind of misguided personal vendetta....not Siskle & Ebert. You seem to want to make this a two sided issue when its really not....

Don't like it? Don't read it!  There are so many good books out there.

As far as I am concerned they have almost ruined the board.  If anyone dares, please post the user names not to read.  If not please pm them to me. I don't follow it enough to instantly recognize if the posts are from the nuts or the good guys.
