Old Duke is a TROLL

You [the morphing troll] have no authority to decide what is acceptable in
this newsgroup and what isn't. You don't own it. You don't even
contribute to it.

Right, all he's got is an assumption based on the name of the group....and
apparently a lot of free time to troll groups. Many MS groups, probably all
of them especially Office groups, cover topics outside of the main focus.
This has been true for almost ten years. So IMO the troll is out of line and
should stop posting his nonsense. If MVPs start making such claims, then we
pay attention. In the meantime, all he's doing is scaring away folks who
legitimately need the help.

MI5 and a bit seems to have made it his mission in life to educate such
folks. More power to his elbow I say. I note that he started as a fairly
lone voice, but that more have flocked to his banner, culminating in this
thread.

He doesn't seem to have that much time on his hands. He only posts at
around a specific time of the day. I have previously suggested that his
mummy only allows him to play with his PC once he has finished his homework.

I don't think I can take all the credit especially for this thread. From
the OP, I suspect it was just someone else fed up with OldDuke's pointless
posts.

OK, I'll buy that. The other indicator is that he'll soon disappear as
summer break begins and his access to usenet ends for a while.

Nope, neither of you has any clue. It just happens to be the time I
hit the computer every night, based on my job's hours and when I eat
dinner. Nice try though. Care to be wrong AGAIN? Then just post
something - it's more than likely going to be WRONG.

.... and once again you are proving my point better than I ever could. Has
your seething rage died down yet?

I don't have a seething rage...just pity for you idiots who can't read
a simple group title and admit YOU are wrong, not I.

It says 'hardware'. A good place therefore to post hardware questions. It
is you that are wrong by popular vote.
