No, I am not.  I have the complete thread since I use an offline
reader.  The number of people who said rec.* or comp.* instead of
ALT.KALI was more than twice that of those who want a KALI-only group.


I was talking about how a general online-gaming group in rec.* or
comp.* would be a good idea.  It's an opinion, treat it as such.

No, I counted.  I stand by 'majority'.

That is fine.  I was trying to support your effort, not derail it.
My comments were to help, not to take any spotlight off of you. When
you post a proposal, expect it to be replied to.  My remarks were
centered around the needs of all online-gamers.

You will still get your ALT.KALI group.  Others thought you might want
to consider a group for all online-gaming methods in rec.* or comp.*.
It wasn't a big deal.  Sure, it takes a bit longer to make a rec.* or
comp.* group, but there are a lot of advantages.  You want a group
right away and cannot wait.  That is your choice.

To others:

A large number of people think a general online/network gaming group
is a great idea. I believe rec.games.computer.online-gaming would be a
good name for it.  Since rec.games.computer.* is already there, it
would fit right in and be easily found by those who want to talk about
it.

People who are interested in seeing a proposal for that group are
encouraged to comment here or via email.  The group would cover TEN,
IHHD, iFRAG, Kali, BBS's, modem, serial link, and all other methods of
network/modem gaming.
