Don't know exactly how accurate this data might be but there is enough
commonality in it to at least get a handle on what's going on on this forum. I'm sure a lot of you more savvy Usenet people have already discovered this but for those who might not; Apparently we have on the group a troll or two with enormous time on their hands and quite a creative "hobby". The first thing noticeable is the advent of a slew of "new" and "creative" posting monikers that appear suddenly or the name looks unfamiliar to regulars here. Then you might notice replies between these unusual pseudonyms taking each other apart. Then come quotes placed within these postings supposedly from myself and others on the forum signed supposedly by myself and others that contain language we don't usually use when posting. Please be suspect of this. If you see this behavior, view the message source. There is a common denominator in the sources that point to specific paths. Just as an example, any ligitimate post from me will be from a Mac computer bearing the IP address 207.172.126.29. Anything else bearing my name is a forgery. 1. If you see the term news.x-privat.org in the path, it's the troll, not me or anyone else. 2. If you see the term eternal-september.org, it's the troll, not me or anyone else. 3. If you see the term octanews.com, be highly suspect. It appears our troll has set up numerous accounts within these servers where he/she can operate freely posting both under a legitimate post here (as most likely you will see under this one as I doubt he/she can resist the temptation, and back and forth with one of his/her sock puppets. If you see a post under this one, check both message paths to ascertain the validity of this post. If I am right, you will find my Mac and IP address on this post and the data above on the other. This being said, I have no idea how many news servers this character is using, but these are the 3 we found so far. Many thanks. Dudley Henriques |

Dudley Henriques Hello Dud, don't worry about Octanews because that's probably me. The troll has impersonated my name "Franklin" in r.a.p. but he doesn't use my news server. You're right in your observations and there's a lot more. I posted about him in r.a.p. recently. If you're interested in knowing more then take another look at what I wrote. Also check out the messages I link to. Here is a copy of what I posted a couple of days ago in the thread on Cessna 150/152 owners. ------- "Maxwell" uses a lot of other names. In alt.comp.freeware he currently posts as "Jeffrey Bloss". I recently explained some of his work and copied that to the music groups where this sock is also active. However I left out the aviation and security groups. If you're interested then this is what I wrote: http://groups.google.com/group/alt.comp.freeware/msg/6b9f81c7285f1539 He's some disenchanted retired guy who still retains hopes of being a pilot, pc security expert, member of special operations, and those sorts of thing. I guess the Net is always going to be stuck with people who live out their dreams online. He's an accomplished sock and can maintain several different identities at the same time. You can see this in the current thread "VST Independence" in a.c.f. http://groups.google.com/group/alt.c...hread/thread/1 c15e77679fdb15b/f71e0b7c2d576cee Some of his socks are placid but he's mostly noisy although I suspect may be just a way of hiding limitations by bluster. As an example, his boisterously proclaimed test of a pilot is surprisingly basic. http://groups.google.com/group/rec.a...4f17a7ff25fdf2 dc I expect his various socks will soon start posting in order to muddle any discussion about him. But, hey, who cares. It's only the internet. It's not real life. |

I'm sure a lot of you more savvy Usenet people have already discovered this but for those who might not; Friendly advice,... relax. Dudley is pretty laid back, so your advice is redundant. You're on your way to Usenet burnout. Believe me, he's not - but ironically, Usenet _itself_ is being burned out from the interior, thanks to the under-managed (or mis-managed, or worse...) free access sites like aioe.org, x-privat.org, and eternal-september.org. State your opinion and move along,... nobody likes a ball hog at the dunktank. He wouldn't even be posting these notices if I hadn't pointed out to him in private e-mail that someone forged his name on a posting; he now rarely posts to the piloting newsgroup. Now to make this post topical for both r.a.p and (hopefully) a.c.f, here are a couple sites that allegedly contains free flight planning and logging softwa http://www.pilotage.com/software/ http://www.pilotpal.com/ |
