I'm not certain, but I am starting to think that Pokemon is Japanese for "please put me in your kill file".
to quote the original poster:
You've posted seven messages about Pokemon. This is not a Pokemon group. Please consider being on topic. Once you start getting kill filed, a newsgroup can become very lonely.

Maybe I missed something here. Is being a "freak" somehow NOW a GOOD thing? or, perhaps the main "symptom" of being a "freak", IS being proud of it. Thats the main problem with slang words, wait, it's NOT a slang word.
[judging by some of the other posts, I am not the only one who mis-understood]
When I checked my dictionary, I found that one definition confirms: "an abnormal animal or plant", as in "Freak show"
Or, maybe I just over-analyzed it. If you are to be taken literally, I guess you are to be commended for being able to type with that big elephant trunk in your way.
I just wish I had the stamina to read through nitpicky things to read it. Reading is overrated anyway. It'd be fun to post ideas for new shows on here, and see if the writers for the show picked up on them... Unfortunately, I think I'm too lazy to do that. I guess I'll stick to just watching the show... But hey anyway, this newsgroup is still cool...
Why do you need to advertise the fact that you kill file someone?
Obviously, if you kill file them, you can't read their post but it seems like every day you find someone to toss there for some obscure reason or another.
There are a few reasons why I do. If the person being KFed appears to simply be trying to get negative attention, I like to let them know that they are being tuned out. Often they are unaware that this is an option.
I have seen responses to someone I KFed where they were asking why I didn't reply to their posts, this way they know in advance not to bother posting to me.
I have also heard the argument that the group really likes it when someone starts a flame war because it "keeps it interesting". When several people tell someone that they are being filtered (see also: PLONK) they will hopefully get the point.
It seem in a sense to be fair to tell someone why their posts are getting a response.
It also gives other people the idea to KF them as well. If a troll gets KFed by the groups regulars, they will get no responses and go away.
For me, it involves someone who is 1. off topic completely 2. does so repeatedly after being asked nicely 3. is belligerent about it.
Or some combination of the above.
Right now, there are five filters active on this group. Three or four are the same person using alternate screen names / accounts. That's a total of two or three people.
Over 90% of my kill file is from one group (not this one) and the worst offender had over 300 posts still up when filtered. Less than 1 were on topic. When I join a new group, there are usually a few additions to the file, then it is expanded only very rarely. I have never KFed anyone for disagreeing with me on topic.
Why hate me? I'm so sweet. Just ask my best fried: *SHES TRYIN TO KILL ME!!* Shut up Koji!! Ok then...uhhehh. Ask Mondo "OhyesMusashiiscool.shefeedsmem+ms.heywannabebestfriends?i'llkillyou!"
