Exactly, me too. It gets extremely tiresome when all you get back is a
childish one-line comment like "What a wanker" or "You're an idiot". What
is the average age of people in the group? 4? I thought the Australian
rail industry was a professional and competitive industry fighting
increasing competition.
The whole point of this newsgroup is to be constructive and to discuss RAIL
topics for the benefit of everyone. A number of people have said that they
wont be returning to this group because of the infantile actions of some.
I'm not going to respond to any more posts in this thread or similar ones.
It isn't worth the energy to.

Everyone pays, Internet access is never free. Internet traffic costs. If
you aren't 'restricted' by the amount you can download or charged
specifically for it, you are covered by a blanket charge to all users,
commonly known as a "monthly fee". If the ISP is downloading more data
from their provider, they will be charged more, and hence will increase the
"monthly fee" charged to their customers, or find another way of cutting
costs.
