Then try a different tack and try a little harder.

Hate?  I don't have hates.  I have a strong aversion to those who 
seem to be misusing this newsgroup which has given me much enjoyment
over 5 years here.


I just think that this time Mr. Casso has gone too far in his 
undesirable activities and it would be good for everyone if these 
matters could be settled once and for all instead of the neverending 
repeated eruptions of these Stein Wars. 

I think the crux of the matter is really Mr. Casso's copyrighted material.  

Prior to the Steins, copyright was never much of an issue here 
in alt.ascii-art, which after all is an unmoderated newsgroup.

In the moderated newsgroup, rec.arts.ascii, posters could request 
the moderator not to allow reposting of a contributor's material
and the moderator's decision on such a request would be final.
If the moderator decided to _allow_ reposting then the contributor
would have to accept reposts or not post to that moderated newsgroup.

Bye,
