So you say. But the best that can be said is that you are not a very
successful one.

Yes, but it was usually in someone else's writings first. Name some

others.

You also alleged, extortion, SOX, Racketeering, and a host of other things.

But the big question is, did you ever contact them about advertising on
their site prior to filing suit? How are you going to show standing if you
didn't?

Evasion of the question noted. Did you ever ask them to advertise on their
website? They have every right to exclude you from their forums. It's not
a public utility, it's a private website. The first amendment does not
guarantee you a forum for your hate speech. People who have a history of
bad conduct are regularly excluded from many activities. If you are
disruptive in a club, they will remove you and they have the right to refuse
you entry in the future. YOU HAVE a long history of making an ass out of
yourself on USENET, so they won't allow you access so you can disrupt their
discussion board. Other groups have done the same thing. MANY other groups
all across USENET and the internet in general. What makes you think that
someone like Mystery, who you attack all the time, owes you anything?
Certainly doesn't owe you a forum for your hate speech.

Equality has nothing to do with moderating disruptive people from a message
board or USENET group.

So what? That does not guarantee you a forum. Who made that rule, you?

Eight grand a year is not making a living, that's a hobby. You are not only
not guaranteed a forum, you are not guaranteed a profit either. People have
the impression, due to your conduct here, that you are an asshole. Every
day you post more drivel, daytime TV crap, off topic posts, attacks against
others that are not here. Why does it surprise you that nobody wants to buy
your stuff. I don't see you being discussed on Dr. Phil, although Springer
was interested at one time apparently. Are you afraid to go on TV and
publicize your books? Maybe you might even sell a few, instead of giving
them away.

You keep braying about that, but the fact is that you have not bothered to

No, sadly there is one chief noisemaker. Have you counted up your off topic

Not yes, the wheels of justice grind slowly. But don't worry, there is at

will be others.

Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one, and some act like they have
two. The statement speaks for itself. Baseless and is made without a
reasonable and competent inquiry. Legally unreasonable, or without legal
foundation. Your RICO pleadings fall into that category. You may not know
what a RICO pleading looks like, but that does not mean that others do not.
The internet, which you are on all day, is full of them. A simple reading
of a few RICO cases would be enough to show you that your pleading is
deficient on it's face. Leaving it in your complaint after you have been
told that is a violation of Rule 11. It's really that simple. Not to
mention that you have been directed to the DOJ RICO manual several times,
which is in six libraries in Philly and can be accessed online. You have
also alleged RICO before and were told your pleading was INCOMPREHENSIBLE.
So what makes you think it's clear now? Vexatious is that it is, filed for
no reason other than to harrass. As you admitted here, all those claims are
covered elsewhere in your complaint.
