Who/what is this "MI5 Persecution" thingie?
Giftzwerg
Every so often, as with Mr. Pollard's post about the CAW patch, I have
to tell my trusty reader to "show all posts." And then I see the masses
of headers which are subtracted from my view due to an xpost filter.
So I read one. And immediately wondered if I was suffering some
neurovascular event, because the English language had suddenly become
incomprehensible to me. I quickly read a normal post, and found - nope
- the trouble was the MI5 post.
What. The. Fucking. Fuck.
... is all that about? There's like, fifty of these posts. Are they
some sort of bot being tested?
What the fuck is this guy on about?

I've been lucky enough to avoid that one - Roadrunner has filtered all of it
from the groups I frequent, much to my surprise as their news service ain't
the best. I've seen several people saying "WTF is with this MI5 stuff?" in
them, so I know that it's showing for others in almost every group. I'm
guessing this is a close relative of that "Big Betha Thing" guy......

Same for Forte news server.

Sadly I get my groups through Google and I haven't figured out how to
filter out this twit.

And next week when "it" posts again the headers will be different so the
killfile won't help then.

He normally keeps his headers the same IIRC as the kill-file has worked
for me.
