That's a kind of improvement, isn't it? I have yet to deduce BiFF's motivation. I may never deduce it, but like a pile of bovine excrement in a field, it may be appreciated in its own way. -- BMO - "deduce, you say?" |

Exactly backwards. by: ColonelZen Long-Term Sentiment: Strong Sell 05/29/06 01:52 pm Msg: 376046 of 376419 <TF> I think he was a crony of one of the insiders being paid to give cover to MM's by presenting the illusion of arguable dispute. No question he has some historical connection to historical Santa Cruz and/or Novell. He obviously has a lot of invested hatred towards Novell. I *think* (but am less certain) that he lost his sinecure in the last year or so. Up until then he would scrupulously avoid making definitive statements. He still avoids that as his "modus operandi" but has "slipped" a few times. Now I think it is purely personal - he genuinely hates us; mostly for being right where he has been wrong, partly for costing him his sinecure, and possibly because he sees "us" as part cause of his lost investments. For my part hatred is too strong a word. Biff embodies the very worst of humanity. He has no respect - actually no comprehension of what respect means - for values transcending oneself. And he has no qualms about discarding mundane truth (in Truth mundane truth is more important and significant than Truth) for venial ends. </tf> -- TWZ Re: Well, no, biff.

Disgruntled investor or former employee? Cuckolded husband blaming Jack Messman? What? <<< One more time. Biff was not here to get anyone to agree with his arguments. He was here so that if called upon to provide plausible justification for their actions money managers could point to biff's posts and claim that they believed there was genuine dispute that SCOX's claims were tennable; i. e. that there was some chance of SCOX winning a substantial award or settlement. In other words that a plausible number could be plugged into the risk/reward calculations. We know that such a number is literally just about as valid as biff's arguments - dog shit on the sidewalk on a hot and humid summer's day has greater value and validity. ASB, I think biff lost the commission and he's just here now because he's pissed and likes to stir shit. -- TWZ |

Not any more. What the new system does it to make it possible to ignore trolls, safe in the knowledge that they will not be seen by anyone that isn't specifically looking for them. Under the old system, they could just keep crapflooding, and if no-one kicked them they would succeed in scrolling the good stuff away. Actually, there are two quite nice BIFF/T related threads there right now which disprove your point. Moreover, you now no longer have to post all those REALLY ANNOYING TOPIC HEADERS every few hours BTW, I hate the new interface, but I am actually using RSS to do a quick scan to see if there's anything worth posting to. Works quite nicely, a bit like the old unofficial newsgroup interface to Y! SCOX. Peace! m4r35n357 |
