if this guy is so bad, just get Ryan to add wb2b2c to the profanity filter to slow him down. They did that a while ago with geocities when there was a really bad spammer.

I don't want to get too technical, or give too much away about Twoplustwo's security systems, but every time his account is banned he has to use another one of his e-mail addresses to start a new account.

Sooner or later he will run out of e-mail addresses and he will be scunnered, so it's really not that big a deal to work with him for a few months.

I think what he's getting at is that if you block off enough of the internet tubes running into the spammers house, html will start to back up into his computer, thus stopping his spamming operation.

This was a pretty effective tactic against another even more persistent spammer a while back. Harder to get domain names than e-mails.

This and Gildwulf's post lead me to believe that

1. Gildwulf doesn't read the mod forum -or- is plagiarizing ideas (not sure which is worse)

2. you don't read this thread

It's all good though EDD baby, I want to be mo'fos again after our little NU Star spat.
