That's why the good Lord invented Filters. Trouble is with accounts
like mine you end up blocking ALL users of a news service to stop one.

Patrick...in all honesty, UseNet is older than the World Wide Web
(WWW) it is a cornerstone of the Net. It has NO administrating body.
Nobody actually sets the rules or polices them. All you can do is
complain to an ISP but many users don't "show" an IP.

Flame wars like this have been going on since the Net was a puppy!
You think this is bad....go read some of the religious newsgroups!
They use death threats daily! This is a scuffle in a kiddy's
playground compared to what goes on in some of the 40,000+ newsgroups.
