www.altopia.com, this time.
Abuse department notfied. Newsdemon have a special auto responding form they send out for complaints about him.
What we could *really* use is a link to his IP address.

Newsdemon have a special auto responding form >they send out for complaints about him. The news admins for the better servers seem to take less than a day these days to block "emm-eye-5 mike" and his ilk, whether through abuse reports or simply spotting 5000 messages arriving from the same source. I know Individual (used to be cis.dfn) do - I'm fairly sure the KF filter I have is out of date and not doing anything, yet 90% of the emm-eye-5 stuff I see is reposted by some other twat who hasn't (presumably) got the excuse of a psychiatric disorder and is simply a twat. If no-one responded or reposted it, just quietly ignored it, it'd occupy a good deal less net-space. It's like playing with trolls, although I admit we do that in the shedde if we get a live one, sometimes :-)
and I reckon you should lay off the bloke. I don't suppose he asked for whatever's wrong with his head. I wish he'd take the medication though, it'd make life easier for him as well as everyone else, but presumably that's his decision and it's not really morally sound to force people to do something 'cos it's good for them.

Sorry, but thats the kind of thing that leads to seriously ill people being released on the streets to kill, in case we offend their rights. He should take his meds because its good for him AND us.

I've seen no evidence the MC is a danger to anyone. People who are a significant danger to others should be restrained for everyone's benefit, I'd agree with that. But spamming the internet about emmeye 5 isn't exactly harming anyone, really. And if people didn't respond all over the place, the impact would be minimal.

No, and no evidence that they haven't either.
I take Austin's point, though - if we start curtailing people's freedom because they *might* harm somebody, in the opinion of one or two medics, then we at the start of a very slippery slope.

What do you mean "start" - its what we used to do for three hundred years.

He & a couple of others are directly responsible for a number of people ceasing their use of usenet, according to items posted recently.
This stuff turns a couple of minutes spent reading informative, relevant and/ or entertaining posts into a long slog of reading headers for & dismissing a load of irrelevant stuff to get at the nuggets of useful information.
Even with all possible consideration for his mental problems, he is single handedly making usent almost unsuable.
Just my thoughts.
