Oldguard has always been the same. He won't change now.
There are a lot of fundamentals he seems unable to grasp
and that tends to make him critical. For instance, he
doesn't grasp the fact that to criticize is the easiest
thing in the world to do. That's why there are so many
critics. This in turn means that he fails to grasp that
by actually DOING the easiest thing in the world he is
making no show whatsoever of any kind of skill or aptitude.
Oldguard is simply a poisonous individual which makes it
all the more surprising that he should OPPOSE Doom. But
then, all trolls want to be the number one troll so maybe
it's not so surprising after all.
He seems to be hopelessly misinformed too. If he was to
drop in to the members section at Pictureview.com he would
find that all newsgroups are rated there based on the number
of pages or pictures looked at. Currently, High-Heels is at
number 6 and older-women (without me) is at number 10. That's
from a total of 1257 groups. So, you see, oldguard is not
only poisonous but hopelessly wrong. He can't help it.
The holding together of older-women seems to be based
on the occasional post from KFish. I rate him like I rated
Hugh Elmwood because he doesn't bring a malicious yapper
into what he does. If only we could say that about
oldguard, eh? Ha ha ha ha !!
Unfortunately oldguard is a troll, nothing more. He
almost succeeded with many others in bringing down
ABPEOW, but he failed because I, along with many others,
went on a troll booting spree in that group. Fortunately
for him, he kept his snout out while we were "cleansing".
So there you have it. Oldguard, troll, nothing more.
It's not a complex situation. It's not rocket science.
