Somebody crossposted something to 8 newsgroups and set followups to 4, one
of which was here. Then the usual thing happens where people reply without
trimming the followups, and there are now some lovely flames going.
You probably can't see the crossposts if you're viewing from Fidonet.
As ever, if helps if people refrain from feeding the troll.
(and I suppose you on Fido don't have killfiles either, and killing
crossposts isn't a thing you can do)
