This is absolutely incorrect.

Perhaps, but probably not. Things have been happening at a fast pace
lately.

That's right Kurk, I have been trolled in this group and treated like
shit because I want to help keep newbies safe. That's what I get for
caring, I guess.
Some people may call me petty for feeling the way I do. But when you
help literally hundreds of people over the course of ten years and
then get treated the way I've been treated, why should I put out an
ounce of effort to help anyone? All of those lurkers I helped were
sitting here watching the drama unfold and none of them said a word.
Just a few friends spoke up.
People have no problem posting to ask me for the list, and these same
lurkers sat here and watched me get trolled by the poster with a
thousand names. If you think about it, I'm under no obligation to help
anyone, am I? Whether some people want to admit it or not, I am a
resource in this group. Lurkers have no respect for their resources,
they don't bother reading the rules and requests of posters and drive
them off. That's why the active groups are secret and password
protected. Lurkers did it to themselves and they're still doing it.

What difference would that make? Those posters steadfastly ignore text
posts and, in fact, snicker behind the backs of the hopeful lurkers
who ask for the passwords. When their current homes get too much
attention they will move along to new groups that have been
predetermined.
I'm not venting at you Kurk, you just gave me a reason to speak my
mind.
Stay Safe,
Doc
