So would everyone else, except for the dysfunctional people.

It is when you expect the world to bend to your whim when a simple
solution has already been offered to you.

You seem to think that I have some magical powers over what subscribers
do. I maintain the server, and occasionally help debug a subscription problem,
but that's about it.
I know you remember the previous Fox list, whose owner tried to control
the content and was constantly banishing people, myself included, for being
human. That was the raison d'etre for ProFox, and I don't anticipate reverting
to the previous list's ways.
ProFox has been working great for over 10 years now. The few idiots who
insist on constantly proving their obnoxiousness are not going to go away, at
least not as long as they have each other to keep themselves amused. You have
three choices:
1) put up with their obnoxiousness
2) filter them out
3) unsubscribe
I find it interesting, although somewhat confusing, why you insist that
#2 is not a viable option. I've been using it for years, and while I barely see
any OT traffic anymore, I'm not missing anything important.
