Hi MRO,

These are the names that were used for posting these spam messages in the last two months:

This is a big simplyfication of what I asked! All I asked was that the default for posting to echomail areas for unverified new users is changed. Not local areas, not for every user! This is not helping the discussion...

"You guys" ?

Fidonet has a long history of obnoxious users/sysops too. They were always allowed to freely express there opinions and worse, and still are.
Bye, Wilfred.
