Re: Why is this newsgroup called alt.OS.linux?



First post in thread - a few headers:

Newsgroups: alt.os.linux,alt.i-hate.linux
Date: Thu, 04 Sep 2008 00:01:44 -0500
NNTP-Posting-Host: I8D1R+8iehc5W+T42mSAWQ.user.aioe.org
X-No-Archive: yes
X-Newsreader: Forte Agent 2.0/32.652

My newsreader filters crossposted messages because as a general rule they
are posted by trollers and/or replied to by trollbait.

This thread only began to appear in my msg list when there was a reply to
a noncrossposted msg in the f/up to a.o.l. so I dug up the invisible old
messages.

The trolling thread was originally started as a crossposted xnay Sep 3,
got some activity, died out for a few days, and then was brought back to
life almost 2 weeks after the previous last post by the top poster sjohns,
almost 3 weeks after the initial troll.
