RE: sniff, sniff

Actually, Idahosa, don't feel bad about being the "bad guy". Probably
better to be able to spot the impending problem then have to deal with it
later.

The person has contributed nothing but insults and poorly written messages
of little or no programming value onto the list. Basically, the user is
generating spam and is wasting bandwidth.

If he was a newbie, he'd be asking questions about what would be good as
opposed to making statements which offends. And even if he was a newbie,
he won't get very far with that attitude in life or anywhere else.

Just a couple of cents,

Wing.

PS. I could be wrong, but seems like the elite-type style came up around
    bbs's and is often used by a good deal of people in the warez
    community in the id files of software they have cracked and are 
    redistributing. It served as a marker of "excellence" by the larger
    groups when being "elite" meant something. These days, though, the
    meaning has lost quite a bit of value. As users like "Phoney" tend to
    make the term "elite" seem like a bad joke.
