No, you do it with ease, you do not have to try.

Well it's no secret that you support re-news.

If we let everyone repost *** on a weekly basis what would be the
point of archiving any of this?

A lot more than the point of archiving this whole discussion, or most of
the discussions on netnews.


It's a simple trick. Read the group for a while, and *then* start
posting. It'd be different if they were months apart but ...

Again, you take on the mantle of net cop with allacrity.
If there really were net cops you would find yourself with tickets far more
than most posters. Another news rule is that you remain polite with people
and that if someone does something you do not like, you exhibit tolerance
of that. Furtehrmore, the newer the poster, the more tolerance you exhibit. But that
is a rule you do not like, so you ignore it. With your example, why should
anyone follow any rules at all, since your key rule seems to be that your
own personal preferences take precedent over anything else.
