Subject: Vandalism on Glidergossip
Posted by Terry on August 31, 1998 at 23:41:13:

Howdy folks,

I am sorry for the repeated vandalism on the discussion area. I still find it amazing that some people choose to be childish in front of others. Just so you know, each message post the group receives records the sending ip address and I am able to determine most of the individuals who vandalize in the group. All I am able to do is to forward the information to their local isp or network admin. I do have the ability to disallow networks from accessing the server, but I think turning the box off is exactly what these people would like to see. Again, I am sorry for the nasties, and I leave you with a bit of a thread between me and one of the abusers:

...Try answering 30 to 50 emails a day all asking the same
questions and keeping
your composure. Complete patience might make a little more sense if I were
running a business
here, but I am not. Nonetheless, my response was not
offered as an insult, but
much more of a "put yourself in their place and see how
you'd feel" scenario to
make you realize how bad what you are asking can be. The
only insult I can offer
you is this: Go away and leave me alone and stop putting
crap all over my
glidergossip.
