    I couldn't find them, so even if they've been asked, they certainly haven't
    bee n asked "frequently."

    As Motorola's market share crumbles, and they ponder retreating from the
    wireless business entirely, perhaps you should anticipate questions like
    "What is/was a Motorola Phone?" or "Didn't Motorola, that two-way radio
    company, used to manufacture cellular phones?"


    > FAQ isn't a literal threshold.


    Got a link for that in your Usenet guidelines?

    I know how to filter, but it's not worth the effort. I can ignore it easily
    enough when it gets out of hand.

    Where? Not in these forums. That would then make the document useless

    And yet nothing even close to the subjects mentioned have been asked in
    these forums. That would mean that in addition to being an idiot, you are
    not very good at anticipating anything. Hardly a surprise.

    You the Google that would pull up your precious FAQ's posted in 2006,
    thereby eliminating our need to see it every two weeks?

    No, it *is* an issue. Because you post the same crap about every two
    weeks...and the information isn't even accurate. People who frequent
    these groups don't want to keep reading your moronic drivel and
    shouldn't have to filter you out.

    Face it, man - you're a Netard.

    Some of these questions have been asked, and there's nothing wrong with
    anticipating questions that haven't been asked. FAQ isn't a literal
    threshold.

    If you don't want to see this thread, then you can filter it out, as I'm
    sure you know how to do. (If not, I'd be happy to help.)

    You're making a large tempest in a small teapot. This is a non-issue
    except to those with personal axes to grind, and I'm not going to give
    in to bullying.

    I don't even have a Motorola phone any more, but I continue subscribing
    to this group just to laugh at him. I don't know what his motivation
    is. He's back posting in some of the photography groups again...trying
    to pass off his lack of photographic knowledge and mediocre images.

    He's a nut case.

    I'll let others dole out the personal abuse WRT to your FAQ. I'll only ask
    one question: why do you call it a "FAQ" when Google ("my friend", as you
    say) can't find a SINGLE instance of the question being asked even once on
    alt.cellular.cingular, other than in your FAQ.

    Makes it more of a "NAQ", (Never Asked Question), doesn't it? Therefore,
    I'd suggest you should remove the word "FAQ" from the subject to comply
    with "standard usenet practice."

    A mission that has badly gone astray.

    A frontal lobotomy may be the only answer.
