Hi, I think in order to discourage newcomers from visiting spam sites, you might wish to start posting your recurring messages again. ;)
Casa told me you stopped posting them for some reason, but I still do not know what the reason is? Well in any case, I've been closing down sites owned by the spammers. I've closed da.ru's site down eight or more times this week alone, and he's finally revamped his site to get rid of what kept getting his site shut down. I'm also in the process of doing the same to various other sites. I haven't seen several of the spammers for days or weeks, although a few are certainly still trying.
I've gained administration of FGB, so I can now delete spam posts from there. Please e-mail me for the password, since it's important that no one irresponsible learns of it. ;)
It was pretty fun yesterday when I deleted the same spammer's post a dozen times in an hour before he gave up. ;)
PS. Do you have PGP? If so, we can post further notes to each other anywhere we want. The advantage of PGP is that you can give everyone your public key, but encryption is one way, so only you can read a message that has been encrypted for that key (not even the person sending the message can decrypt the message). Using this, people communicate all the time in newsgroups set aside for encrypted messages. They can post their messages and their keys publically. ;) This is my public key: -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: PGP for Personal Privacy 5.0 mQGiBDR/QtkRBAD0Bu2trZoM4wUc5BAjq5AP+uT5jWfqagJeB6mGsx8zzPqPwakc XxHnVR7B392R6ccmIsKhBcjpE7Il4vK3UxW9JSxVeQzlSw8mocITBmo39Y2LsG66 7iM0m5FMI7nPxwglb4qfKhX7M3VOCXCWNP+PDmcqyM7DFSMH0q8EhnXKlQCg/1Xn urYJ+SNMbNUdCeOrnUOdGKsD/j+YbZE+5X3ESaRmG1VW8IuYZmShOwEG1i8JoNlU Wa7V5p7nMuhlytdkGmdqSBrLVRi8yOgY27LU5vA9Y35C9nAFBgH300cDI+VmTSso C32P5GoNrsBClGMfoH1G3RD6sbyno0Hq9DgWakpO95kkTNWgnUP9DhYo0Q2w92Yj wqxKBACcDiDt/CFqYVyswO5r1ePD8FItVq+QkwlcAljAF8qqHnXZjWrqcIc6Yh+J 724bzdQ6Qh3M+7PsYIuCv3/X5jtgyoZJjb2gdai82kKpBBx8P9bAaDi6t/QJygyK aXWHChECiYtaolxk69ew0XbFuH9BCqNi7HlXqyBToYi7oUaYyLQdUmFtc2VzIDxy YW1zZXM0MEBob3RtYWlsLmNvbT6JAEsEEBECAAsFAjR/QtkECwMBAgAKCRDKeSlg MOQQaF8MAJ4y46dhIDojcUrgAUm72fwCONDdDACfQlcLyvxBNKfNzBENw/VaheRo VWm5AY0ENH9C2hAGAPj1WV/cdlJPPT2N286Z4VeSWc39uK50T8X8dryDxUcwYc58 yWb/Ffm7/ZFexwGq01uejaClcjrUGvC/RgBYK+X0iP1YTknbzSC0neSRBzZrM2w4 DUUdD3yIsxx8Wy2O9vPJI8BD8KVbGI2Ou1WMuF040zT9fBdXQ6MdGGzeMyEstSr/ POGxKUAYEY18hKcKctaGxAMZyAcpesqVDNmWn6vQClCbAkbTCD1mpF1Bn5x8vYlL IhkmuquiXsNV6Vh8RwACAgX/Xg/Jpv/Z0EJiSeJlDph/ojRtvKhJFidsrgsgGivI tKq9jvA4CH0H1yVyYWE2sY2S6U/6VYr3OGYuNvjxlK5VoUge995xWWvjnOiSw0HX EdhTSK0i+Re5QPfdfywlRJhFiJuua6uDUxIfVZg/3is1vT653yvR35FKrfHd6opf 8k9m/Sz/DsRIher4xj5SPCgUOQf9GChIvbok8jQiOfrb4+E1An/dkrWAWHNX8c+S ZTLQekIThdj+7GgRTyoN7eVqiQA/AwUYNH9C2sp5KWAw5BBoEQKsIACg9RnD0KwQ Irg/c6lO84Tizy+ob6kAoPsqxrSqLsd3b/RWUqhu+Ao5AD63 =mccJ -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- As always, have fun. ;)
