Despite that, I hope you can see why a person interested in C
programming wouldn't wish this group to be filled with
discussions of non-standard C libraries and implementation
details of unknown compilers.

Conversely, most regulars of this newgroup are respectful to
those who come here with initially mistaken assumptions.

comp.lang.c is an unmoderated group with effectively no charter.
Thus, if you are invested in defining the topic of this
newsgroup, then some sort of action is required.

You may make the accusation that this group spends perhaps too
much time and bandwidth defining itself. But it's long-standing
part of its culture.
