I joined this list a few days ago. I count 12 replys to the original You
Creeps.
Obviously. the person who sent *You Creeps* succeeded in spamming this list
by just sending the original two messages, and having you (the newsgroup)
respond the way you did.
Fine. Let him sit back in a glow of satisfaction. Whomever it is brought up
the excellent point that spamming can be done from public computers, (yes
they are out there) and that it is a problem, and that admins should have
sign in sheets, (take names and numbers and verify by license or school ID)
to deter this spamming. However, this will not eliminate it.
Now please don't anyone send replys to You Creeps after this one. Let it go.
If you do deciede to reply, please reply to my comments and not to the You
Creeps post.
