Crosspost trolling!
Anyone answering these crosspost are destroying the agenda of both newsgroups.
Extract from our posting guidelines...
-------------------------------------------------------------
Subject: What is not acceptable
Cross-posting articles between alt.airports.uk.edinburgh and
alt.airports.uk.glasgow. (Cross-posting to binary newsgroups is also not
acceptable for obvious reasons).
Both newsgroups should be allowed their own unique identities without
'stealing' each others.
"The Crosspost Troll"
This is perhaps the most effective Troll in that it produces large
numbers of posts with little effort from the Troll. An inflammatory post
is made to a group of Sub Target newsgroups, say cooking, politics or
guns. The Target Newsgroup is included in the ng list. The innocent
posters to the Sub Target newsgroup continue to discuss this in the
normal way without noticing that the posts are also going to the Target
Newsgroup.

Yes, hot air it seems that is blowing in completely the opposite
direction to all the rest of the cool air ;-)

Cool air? This is cool air?:
Where's Blimpie? Don't you mean Deejay? Who cares...? Life is pleasant
without him. Perhaps we can actually have real debates on this group without
his kind of malicious bitter tabloid style rantings and personal attacks.
Although I sometimes disagree with you, John Dundas and Joe, I respect for
you and your opinions and for the way that you express yourselves. I have NO
respect for Mr. Jaffray as a result of his antics on this group. There were
times I actually found myself cheering on EDI and being anti-GLA purely as
an emotional response to him. This is NOT what I really feel as, although I
live in Edinburgh, I am from Glasgow and am proud of it.
Deejay/Blimpie/Jaffray does GLA no favours by his bitter personal attacks on
Joe and anyone who dares to agree with him, and those people who support GLA
would do well to realise it and distance themselves from him. That doesn't
mean people shouldn't post comments disagreeing with other viewpoints, but
it should not be done as some kind of bitter vendetta. After all they are
just airports........ lets keep things in perspective.
-----------------
Indeed much as I dislike Blimpie / BBB/ Deejay
/Gmuir and all his numerous aliases, I would not wish him harm, nor post
anything threatening him with harm.
Let there be no doubt in anyone's mind, The reason I do not post in aaue
is not because of Joe. It is because of Blimpie. I got totally sick of his
blinkered obsessive behaviour. I have to admit that at times it was fun
winding him up. But then I started to feel slightly bad about that. It
felt like bullying someone who really needed help.
----------------------
AAUE has sunk to a new low in which links to a pic featuring
someone has now being posted, (with his permission?) basically stalking, so,
until further notice, in fact for a very very long time, I will NOT be
posting anymore pics on the forums or binaries,
------------------------
I occasionally popped up in AAUE with what I believed to be EDI/
Scottish/ Aviation related posts , a bit of a lurker I suppose.
The AAUE group is utterly astonishing for all the wrong reasons, I
really can't believe what I read at times. I have NO connection with any
of the posters or any strong opinions, life is too busy for me to give
as much as a
hoot really.
I have noticed over the last few years some really interesting/talented
people leave AAUE for same reason as you,
