CROSSPOSTING?
Now, hit reply to this post, but before you send it take a look at the top
where is says "Newsgroups:" and you'll see that I've added a group for this post to be sent to. (Sorry rpca folks to use you as an example!). Anybody can do that at any time to any post and make it look like you're posting in that group. I've failed, many times, to be alert to the groups listed in "Newsgroups:" and I've found myself in some pretty weird groups indeed - through no fault or effort of my own. Hugs, CatNipped "kittychats" wrote in message ... Howdy All- So, I recently posted in some alt. sumthin-or-other group about some recent crime story in the news. I wanted to refence the post and see if anyone had added to it. Anyhoo, I clicked on my one of my cp posts & go into my stats. I was floored to find all sorts of groups listed that I have never been to. Upon further inspection, I realize that these are my posts. I just didn't put them in these groups. They are obviously pirated from my cp posts. I'm gonna assume someone took the time to do this with my posts, but WTF? I'm not not a techie, so I don't understand, frequently, even the most rudimentary of internet skills. I find this quite perplexing. What is this? kittychats |

Hugs, CatNipped Yes, that's a mistake that I have frequently made--it's all-too-easy to overlook the addresses at the top and post to several groups without realizing it. I have occasionally cross-posted *deliberately,* but that is very rare and only to select groups. If you do notice that the message has been cross-posted, you can simply delete the groups that are not wanted (as I have done, above). MaryL |

What is this? kittychats CatNipped Soooo, you and LLL didn't 'crosspost' to the Pink Floyd ng recently thrasing me???? hmmm?? I didn't see a crosspost. It doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things, really. Smile. I'm not posting there for awhile. I did get a kick out of your posts, tho. So much wasted energy. I'm being stalked by youz.. Sigh...it's okay, if ya gots to thrash somebody, I can take it, really. I'm nobody important, just a lil ol lady with 4 cats who likes Pink Floyd, and recently had 3-5 seizures, and peeps there are wishing me dead...ROTFLMAO. And most of them are from the UK! Wierd. I've actually met 10 people in real life from the Floyd ng and they were decent enough people One man works for NASA and posts how exciting it was to see the Space Shuttle take off. I even got the NASA Channel in the hospitle. It is easy to take out a crosspost, like I just did, so the reply just shows up here. You can just hit the backspace on your computer until everything is erased on the ng except the one you want to post to. This reply won't be seen in any other crossposts unless someone doesn't remove them like I did, see? Be sure to take the periods and commas out too or it will misfire and not post.Just trying to be helpful is all. Not wishing to offend anyone, just trying to help Quite honestly, I'm not reading the Floyd ng anymore because I just get trashed after almost 13 years there...LOL. Well, I do read it sometimes, but I don't reply. I look at the groups on the Floyd ng when I was posting there, and if it has like 5 crossposts, from an idiot name of Raja from the Beatles ng. I just delete the entire thread. I'm no tekkie either, but it's easy I gotta tell ya I know top posting is a nono in Usenet, but the 2 cat groups I'm in don't seem to mind. So, there ya go. Now I have to go to MySpace and erase all my info 'cause someone alerted me that someone was posting using my name. I really don't need this crap...I'm gonna bail from there soon. Did you know there are over 500 Kyla's on My Space and at least 2 of them are men? LOL Wow. I also bailed from Facebook, because I don't have time to be on the computer, even wearing dark glasses... HTH. kittychats Meows & Purrs Peace, Kyla |

CatNipped Soooo, you and LLL didn't 'crosspost' to the Pink Floyd ng recently thrasing me???? hmmm?? Kyla, ~*LiveLoveLaugh*~ posted exactly two posts to the Pink Floyd NG recently, neither of which were crossposted here (I agree that those two posts were trashing you, but then again, you trashed LLL, so it seems fair game) Catnipped, unless in some other form, did not post ANY posts to the Pink Floyd forum, and therefore could NOT have 'trashed' you nor 'crossposted' as you accuse her of. Unless you know for sure that Catnipped is using another 'nym on the Pink Floyd forum, you now owe her an apology. I am not going to dispute the fact that you receive a fair amount of flames on the Pink Floyd forum, but that is not an excuse to make up false accusations against RPCA people just because you may not like them. Also, there is *absolutely* no reason to drag alt.music.pink-floyd drama into here, even if there was crossposts, which there was not. May your recovery go smoothly and quickly.

I'm not not a techie, so I don't understand, frequently, even the most rudimentary of internet skills. I find this quite perplexing. What is this? kittychats LONG BUT RELEVANT TO 'Nipped I'm not a geek either, but FWIW will share this with you. H&B where I have cyber friends who are NOT trolls, happens to be a magnet for trolls, who delight in doing exactly what you demonstrate here. I post there frequently to legit queries about cat problems and care, as well as medical issues. Because crossposting is one amusement form of the many trolls lurking in that ng, I never post anything w/o checking that heading line and removing any *other* ng names. Before I began doing this, after a post about cat problem, I found I had crossposted in this manner to some *dog* ng where I was landed on with all 4 dog feet, LOL, for posting cat topic in their dog ng. I told them to stuff it, in my usual charming style, and decided, "no more of this crap" with the destination crosspostings. Do not please interpret this in any way derogatory to *you*, as I am aware you are a reg in the c.p. group and why....another class of cyberfolk who might perhaps indulge in such teenage amusement form *other than trolls* is "disturbed" individuals who are that way for one reason or another. From what I have seen, limited, in that c.p. ng IMHO you got a few of those there....though note this: there are those in H&B who are both disturbed *and* troll....I don't think that goes for any regs in c.p. but who am I to judge anyone. else. Since *you* asked *who*..I think someone is jerking you around, not having troll fun. =================== Your advice, comments, questions, and even chidings are *never* unwanted or, to my knowledge, unwarranted by me. You're "smarter than the average bear", Hop - and you have a pretty keen sense of knowing exactly what's needed when and where! Yes, it is more than just a troll who has started a campaign against me, trying to stir up a group of villagers to light their torches* and run me out of town - using nothing but insinuations and a mistake on his part that was clearly pointed out to him both on the group and, from the defensive and angry tone of another post he made, *many* more people also pointed out to him via email. You know the type - they'd rather be dead than be proven wrong, so now he has to trump up some other stuff and say that, *that's* not what he was talking about, never once mentioning what those horrendous things I was doing, nor apologizing for the *extremely* nasty accusation he *did* make. He's the type who thinks an honest apology is showing weakness. A very sad case to be honest. You'd think that on a chronic pain support group the *last* thing you would want to do is inflict even more pain for no better reason than to keep from saying you were wrong. Anyway, to the rest of you guys, all this is totally irrelevant and I shouldn't have brought it over here - I am so sorry to dump on you a petty fight from another newsgroup. As an explanation I was trying to show another member how, when I answered a question from a fake newbie who crossposted it to alt.hard.drugs (or some such newsgroup I'd never heard of), and he accused me of being a regular poster over that and only in the pain group (like some undercover spy) to find out what the "good" drugs were to use to get high. So I am doubly in error since this is not about cats, and because I used this group as an example of how it was done before thinking about what distress it may cause you here! But, I do have some good news, I put my laptop on my bed so that I can post more here *and* in the chronic pain support group (which, I have to admit, have been a great help for me in figuring it out what to do and if whatever it was *Ironically, I was trying to find out why the right side of my body felt as if someone was holding a lit torch to my skin. LOL! Hugs, CatNipped |

And, 'am sorry to tell you, they all have NOTHING to do with you. If you knew WHY Catnipped cross posted, then you'd feel even more foolish then you are now. (If that's even possible). You create your own hell, Kyla. And the reason why you get TRASHED repeatedly in the Pink Floyd group is because you ASK for it. You've lied to every person in there, and now you're doing it in here. I'm not surprised.... nor amused. But if there was any doubt on how ignorant you are, you just sealed the deal. You're a big fake, Kyla.... not to mention a complete fool. -- L.
