Strange neophites, plying the net, and buying trinkets is no basis for a
system of newsgroups!  Supreme creation power derives from a mandate from
the the Cabal (tm), not from some farsical net-collectable!

"Stop Posting!"
 
You can't expect to weild newsgroup creation power just becuase some
stupid Freshman bought a shirt from you!
 
"STOP Posting!"
 
Look, If I went around saying I was Bill Joy, just because some person
bought a necklace from me, they'd put me away!
 
"STOP POSTING!  I order you to stop posting!  IGNORANT NEWBIE!!"
 
Ahah!  Now we see the violence inherant in the system!
Help! Help! I'm being oppressed!
