Hi Jane=0AI can only answer for myself.=0AFirst of all, rules like this ten=
d to be used by bullies on the group=0Ato make posters conform. If its not =
that rule, they will have another=0Aso we may as well confront them on this=
 one. One fellow has rules re the subject=0Aof the post - he changes mine w=
hen he makes some remarks. Bully tactics.=0ABullies never grow out of their=
 habit.=0AIn addition I go fishing a lot and report what I see other than t=
he fish, I have no desire=0Ato have a fish hog follow me there through this=
 group.=0AI also once made a post where I gave the location, An other reade=

s such a miserable spot.=0AA lady recently posted about her desire to have =
location in the posts. I have=0Anever read to my knowledge any posts from h=
er. She wants to make the rules=0Abut doesn't post herself. A cyber bully!=
=0AIn addition Jane the number of posts has fallen like the Maple Leaves in=
 the NHL.=0AWe need to do something to encourage folks to post. Bullies giv=
