Theos-Talk Archives (December 2001 Message tt00459)

Why leave?

You don't have to answer any person or thread that doesn't interest
you. Some browsers have "Twit filters", as you know from your BBS
days.

If you only converse with people that you consider relevant, those you
don't approve of might eventually leave.

You are one of the people who have something worth while to say. But,
discriminate in which thread you chose to participate in.
