Since August 20th I have been stalked by one of your customers.
This person has seen fit to place the attached message to each
of the posts that I have made into the following newsgroup.
rec.aviation.rotorcraft
He is also following me into other newsgroups that I regularly
contribute to, and I do not appreciate his actions.
On twelve occaisions he has seen fit to attach this identical
TROLL WARNING to my posts accusing me of trolling this
group, regardles of the subject, or contents of my posts.
The following quoted text is an example of the sorts of
comments that I have been making in this group.
I'd sure like to see photos of your flying adventure also.
There is nothing in the above quoted text that would require
the sort of harrasment that I have suffered this past week.
I WISH THIS HARRASMENT TO STOP.
I trust you will contact your client and ensure that these automatic
responses to my posts cease immediately - IN ALL NEWSGROUPS.
