I didnt do anything! The grey aliens did itand by that, I mean the hive-mind of you/Lauda/theymos/et al. ← [new excuse of next user caught merit-farming]

(The crypto-lover in me tried to find a hidden message spelt out in the sizing and capitalization of those letters. Either there isnt one, or I fail at quick mental codebreakingor I missed something because I have webfont-loading disabled for security reasons. On the plus side, the chip implanted in my head by you/Lauda/the CIA is now downloading the forum oligarchys directives for persecuting and oppressing poor, innocent users such as HALLASTERA/kinki32. Oh! I just now received a directive to say, Muahahaha!)

P.S., cultural cross-pollination: Spamfighters on news.admin.net-abuse.email are all part of and/or on the payroll of a lumber cartel, which fears the competition of environmentally friendly e-mail advertising to deadtree ~~spam~~ direct marketing. Of course, they all deny it with the acronym TINLC (There Is No Lumber Cartel). Among others which are similar, this tradition dates back to the 90s, when it grew from the seriously stated accusations of an actual spammer. Spammers are so oft possessed of certain mental characteristics, which do not change with time or the medium being spammed.

n.a.n-a.e. was always one of the toughest newsgroups. As you well know, spammers are nasty, self-entitled, mentally unstable morons with persecution complexes who impotently fantasize about revenge on anybody who interferes with their marketing efforts. Most of the n.a.n-a.e. regulars did/do fight spam as part or all of their jobs, in the capacity of sysadmins, network consultants, or employees of companies developing antispam products. They always had to be tough as nails, biting back hard when necessary. You, Lauda, and a few others would fit right in there; given the nature of online pseudonymity, who knows if you did/do? Eureka! I have another theory! YOU ARE PAID BY THE LUMBER CARTEL!
