The only thing I'd disagree with about what Kate said was that Bill's
tormentors are angry. They're not. They're having fun, and they're
having it at his expense (and at the expense of anyone else who takes it
marginally seriously).
To break it down:
* Bill's the one spending time and effort sifting through headers and
trying to track down the posts' origins.
* Bill's the one spending time and effort to report his findings to
providers who may/may not care about what's happening -- if they're
even the appropriate providers in the first place.
* Bill's the one spending time and effort to respond to each post.
And ultimately:
* Bill's naive enough to think that all his time and effort is going
to make a bit of difference because as quickly as he might be
able to get an account nuked, new ones are created.
* Bill keeps encouraging them to continue by obediently fetching every
stick that's thrown.
Unless Bill (and anyone else who's getting upset by what he brought
here) learns to simply ignore posts that offend/don't interest him/them,
it's going to continue...and probably escalate. Like it or not, there's
~25 years of usenet history to back that up.

It's easy Billy Ray, I have that fool with the poser Jeep following me
through usenet spouting off 'blatant' lies because I pissed him off.
All you have to do is Google someone to find out where they post to
stalk them.

through usenet spouting off 'blatant' lies because I pissed him off.
All you have to do is Google someone to find out where they post to
stalk them.

:
: Earle

All perfectly valid points Earle but that is ASSUMING that what Bill did was
something good.
We all know what happens when we assume.
I remember his very first post to me was telling me to get a REAL Jeep. He
then proceeded to disrespect my brand new pride and joy for several posts,
because it was not HIS idea of a REAL Jeep. What a crock of ----.
It went about a yard up my ***. Face to face, I'd have given him a piece of
my mind.
He can be abrasive from the get-go and I am just saying that he may have
brought this on himself.
I'm not saying he DID but he could have.
Furthermore, I think he likes the attention.
He has successfully become the center of attention in this and other groups
simply because of his 'fan club'
It's like walking onto a grammar school play yard at times.
I have not been in this group long but I have been on Usenet for something
like 12 years - you remember, back in the day?
When you logged onto the server in a little black screen.
These are particularly crafty vile little trolls.
But I'm telling you, they didn't just choose him from the herd because he is
soft spoken, gentle natured, good old Bill.
He did something to **** them off. Note - THEM. More than one person even.
I think I may even have a fair idea of who one of them is and I'm betting
that no matter how hard Bill tried, if it is who I think it is, he will
NEVER get the guy.
If I had the time or interest I would google it to see where it started.
But I just don't care about it that much.
Ya'll can pat him on the back all you want. IN THIS CASE I'd like to put my
boot in his *** and tell him to grow the hell up.
On another note, it's in the 70's outside and my Jeep is calling to me.
Can you hear it?
"Katieeeeeee... come put the top down.... lets go for a drive!"
That means, I'm outta here :)

By the way Mike - I owe you an apology.
I thought the guy might be genuine the first tiem he posted. You spotted him
from the get-go.
Sorry I defended him to you when you were right about him trolling for
votes.
