You do realize that you're making it permissable for anyone to 3rd party
cancel your articles, don't you? If you don't include some unique content
to these individually prepared imitations of 'bot spew with which you insist
on deluging usenet then these people you so strongly oppose will have the
right to cancel your articles.
And I'm about at the point of telling them how.
If you're curious as to the veracity of my statements, I suggest you inquire

**Then they should all be cancelled as well, since I am merely
replying to their drivel.
Why is it then-- that when I asked a legitimate questionabout having
their interfenece stopped, all I got was idle threats and more
accusations------- yet when I reply back to the moron element, you
claim I can be cancelled?
That makes no sense---
Literally, what you are saying is that it's okay for them to flame me,

In other words, then you both are admitting to cancelling people's
posts BASED ON CONTENT right?
Now-- since you insist on spam not being taken into consideration as
regards content----- what YOU are doing is far mor censorial than
anything you have ever accuse me of diong.
There is indeed a double standard here----
I see the morons posting their crap, NEVER snipping lines from the
originals, and constantly posting mile-long bloody 'siglines'---- the
SAME EVERY DAY...
Yet-- you don't threaten to cancel their messages, do you?
If what you say is true, theirs would have been autobotted some time
ago, would they not?
Again, it's your double standard.
You speak of 'original content' ---- yet, I am snipping the crap, and
adding my own lines--- but you claim my posts are all repetition----
what about their constant repetition?
What about their constant, intentional crossposting?
Making up a set of rules for one is a very censoring thing--

Once again, the articles that you call "drivel" are all unique usenet posts.
As such, they are not cancelable. Your rote responses to them are all
essentially identical, and appear to be written to set off spam detectors.
¸ Why is it then-- that when I asked a legitimate questionabout having
¸ their interfenece stopped, all I got was idle threats and more
¸ accusations------- yet when I reply back to the moron element, you
¸ claim I can be cancelled?
Because 3rd party cancels are required to be content blind. Even if
they are "off topic," whatever that may be, (no one has a working definition
that makes a majority of usenet posters happy,) there is no mechanism for
their legitimate cancelation. THAT would be censorship.
¸ That makes no sense---
¸ Literally, what you are saying is that it's okay for them to flame me,
¸ but not okay for me to reply.
There is nothing preventing you from replying with original, unique
articles save perhaps your own lack of imagination. It is only when
you repeat an essentially similar message over and over again that it
falls under the accepted definitions of spam and becomes cancelable.
¸ That is censorship.
You are not censored for saying something once. Under the current
system, you can cross post a single message to 399 different newsgroups
and still be under the BI>20 limit. But posting that same essentially
similar message to a single newsgroup twenty times is BI=20. This is
not about what you say, it's about how much of the communal news spool
you're taking up to say it. Some of your articles have a BI in triple
figures, Elaine. This isn't high abuse of the system, but it isn't
borderline either. You are clearly across the line and begging for
cancelation in many instances.
>> In other words, then you both are admitting to cancelling people's
>> posts BASED ON CONTENT right?
>
>No, fuckwit, I'm saying I know how to.
**You admitted to before on other posts--- and I see, of course, you
still cannot post without the ever-famous 'fuckwit' stupid
expresson--- but in cancelling posts as you and ballou menton, you ARE
cancelling illegally, and doing so based on content alone.
When I requested info on thirdparty cancels, I did so for a legitimate
reason---- that of removing harrassing posts from alt.romath only.

Wrong---- I post in response to their stupidity--- using many

So how can you or ballou claim my posts are all the same?

bullshit-- schoolkid. They ARE posting the same repetitions in the
absolute sense.
You're just lying to cover their asses.
>> What about their constant, intentional crossposting?
>Crossposting is good - it's not abuse of the net, like your multiposting.
^^Uh huh---- when they post, it's crossposting, which is 'good'-- when
I post, it's multi--- pure BS
When I delete un-necessary header names from the addy lines, I preven
EMP--- but they, in turn purposely ADD 'em back in----- yet you praise
their tactics.....
When I reply to them , leaving the same number of header addies as
they had in the original, I'm supposedly multiposting.
You lie.
>> Making up a set of rules for one is a very censoring thing--
>Oh no.
Oh, YES.
Your explanation sucks-----
I also asked Ballou to contact me by email, which on checking so far,
I've seen nothing---
The only cancelations I have ever done to third party posts have been
'bot spew, with the exception of an idiot in alt.drugs.hard who cut
and pasted annoying articles for ten hours a day for over a week to
imitate 'bot spew, some of which I also canceled. Joshua didn't say
he'd ever canceled anything, only that he knew how. And to the best
of my knowlege, your own posts which are well over BI>20 have been
left alone. Legitimate despammers are very hesitant to use their
cancelbots, because any mistakes made by these automated programs
could quite unintentionally censor legitimate articles. No one wants
to fire up a cancelbot in the UPA and meower newsgroups to cancel
your BI>20 articles, Elaine. If you'd stop posting them I could go
outside and play with my tomato plants. But you seem to want to play
"whose dick is the biggest" with the meowers, and they're trolling
you into cancelation territory.
¸ Now-- since you insist on spam not being taken into consideration as
¸ regards content----- what YOU are doing is far mor censorial than
¸ anything you have ever accuse me of diong.
It's your choice to post the stuff, Elaine. I've never canceled
anything you've written, and all I've said is that if someone were
to start canceling it today then they would be within their rights
to do so. The reason I've said so, deliberately in threads that
you're participating in, is so that you might seriously consider
ceasing your newsgroup disrupting activities. YES I know others
are disrupting newsgroups, but they aren't doing anything cancelable.
Not only are they not doing anything cancelable, but your own actions
in replying to them legitimizes the meowers in the eyes of usenet
system administrators. If they see a newsgroup being bombarded,
but not replying to the newsgroup invaders, then they know who the
innocent party is. When they see you going toe to toe with the
meowers, they'll assume that you are eagerly participating in a
flame war, and that your BI>20 articles are abusive attempts at
flooding a newsgroup as a flame war tactic.
¸ There is indeed a double standard here----
¸ I see the morons posting their crap, NEVER snipping lines from the
¸ originals, and constantly posting mile-long bloody 'siglines'---- the
¸ SAME EVERY DAY...
That's because they are following the rules. Quoted material is
not considered in calculating the Briedbart Index, and neither are
.sig files.
¸ Yet-- you don't threaten to cancel their messages, do you?
They've very carefully (and responsibly) kept their articles under
the BI>20 limit. Threatening them with cancelation would be censorship,
and would have no support from the system administrators of usenet.
¸ If what you say is true, theirs would have been autobotted some time
¸ ago, would they not?
No. Not if their messages were all original unique content.
¸ Again, it's your double standard.
It's a single standard, it's called the Briedbart Index, and you
should learn what it is if you want to continue flaiming with the
big boys on usenet.
¸ You speak of 'original content' ---- yet, I am snipping the crap, and
¸ adding my own lines--- but you claim my posts are all repetition----
¸ what about their constant repetition?
Quoted material and .sig files are not considered when calculating
the Briedbart Index for any single message. As far as the BI goes,
they are NOT repeating anything. And not all of your posts are
repetitious, but many of them are.
¸ What about their constant, intentional crossposting?
The BI is skewed in favor of crossposting, as an article crossposted
to forty newsgroups is only stored once on each servers news spool.
¸ Making up a set of rules for one is a very censoring thing--
The rules were there before you started breaking them, Elaine.
Continuing to break them after you've been repeatedly warned
against doing so (and I'm watching my own BI here, heh heh) is
not likely to win you much sympathy in nanau.

**They are written with one thing in mind--- as REPLIES.
It seems awfully strange to me that THEY can post what they like, when
they like--- and waste all kinds of space, purposely crossposting, and
even re-adding in ng headers when I purposely REMOVE them to prevent
crossposting----- yet it's me you choose to squawk on about-----

**Fine--- then WHY are you carrying on about threatening to cancel
mine?
You are obviously admitting to checking up on content---- and I'm
sorry, but you're wrong-- my posts are NOT the same--- their contents
vary from post to post.
But you imply that by saying ROTFL! or WRONG! in more than one post is
EMP---- I ask again--- WHAT ABOUT THEIR CONSTANT USE OF STOLEN LINES
IN EVERY POST THEY MAKE?
My cure for it would be simple----- REMOVE ALT.ROMATH.
That's what I requested months ago---- but it never got done.
Remove the ng entirely, and I'll be happy---- so will you.
Not just from one or two servers, no--- but remove it entirely--- from
the internet.

**Okay, I get what you are saying here----- in other words, if I
posted "Thank you!" once, crossposting to 399 different ng's, you say
that's fine, and I still have a BI of 20----
But-- If I post "Thank you!" in say, fifteen messages in the same ng,
Ive got a BI of 15, and that is where you'd be on my ass for socalled
EMP, right?
The thingI'm questioning is this:
There are many in the SAME ng---- who are posting the SAME crap in
their 3/4 page length 'siglines' ----- in EVERY message.
tweny-five, thirty messages easily in one day----- THAT would give
them A BI OF 25 - 30 accordsing to what you just said------
why do you not threaten to cancel THEIR messages?
You are threatening me, merely because you hate the fact that I'm on
to their game, and have been giving them a good run lately---
Fair is fair---- and you're being totally unfair by threatening to
cancel one, and not the other.
>The reason I've said so, deliberately in threads that

**But I am not the disruptor here -- they are--- how can UI be the one
at falut when it is THEM who are doing the infiltrating, the
intentional crossposting, etc.
I have purposely removed all manner of headers from the ng's lists in
replying--- and THEY go right AHEAD AND ADD 'EM BACK IN.
Seems more to me that you are simply saying that I should let them
walk all over me, but I should never have the right to reply back to
them.
> YES I know others

There's a world of difference between what we do and what Elaine has
been doing. We say things that are annoying to some people; Elaine
has been attempting to disrupt our group by flooding it with those
"drivel removed" messages. What she is doing is not much different
than the people who bot flood a.r.scientology.
>If they see a newsgroup being bombarded,
>but not replying to the newsgroup invaders, then they know who the
>innocent party is.
Especially when our articles are unique in content, and even on topic
for the groups they are crossposted to. And "invaded" really isn't a
very good word, since everyone has just as much right to post to a
group as anyone else. Just because the regulars of a group don't like
what they see from UPA's doesn't make it abuse.

Aside from the fact that NO ONE HAS CANCELED ANYTHING yet, you're
wrong. A large number of your posted articles are far in excess of
the Briedbart Index limit that is used to judge cancelable spam. I
personally have a strong distaste for the current system of 3rd party
cancels, but an even stronger distaste for people who deliberately
abuse the system as you've been doing for the last several weeks.
¸ When I requested info on thirdparty cancels, I did so for a legitimate
¸ reason---- that of removing harrassing posts from alt.romath only.
Which would have been censorship, which is why no one helped you to
perform 3rd party cancels. Just because you got YOUR panties in a
bunch doesn't mean that system abuse was performed. If you don't
like being incinerated, don't participate in flame wars. You're
every bit as guilty of harrassment as your corespondents, Elaine.

Right now all I've done is take the time out to explain current

disdainful.

That difference will be far more apparent when people get sick of
trying to be nice and explain things to you, and just start canceling
your BI>20 articles. I have a nasty feeling that eventuality is
what you're shooting for. You're deliberately trolling respectable
system administrators into canceling your spam to give you an excuse
for further system abuse.

They aren't BI>20. I've written you before, at the address you

I carefully explained to you the way the Briedbart Index is calculated

Not all of them are, but a large proportion fall under the definition

spam cancelation.

As long as a single unique article is posted to fewer than 399 newsgroups,
it is below 20 on the Briedbart Index. When your sole contribution to
an article that you post is to say "HA! Fools! Into the bozo bin with
you!" or _variations on the same_ then the square root of the number of
newsgroups the article is crossposted to is taken, and added to every
other essentially similar article that ANYONE has posted in a 45 day
period, to ANYWHERE on usenet. Your stupid buddy claiming to be the

What gives YOU the right to post in a newsgroup and not anyone else?
I know that "Romath" is your nickname, and that alt.romath is a vanity
group, but gosh dab nabbit Elaine, naming a newsgroup after yourself
on usenet is just begging for a fight.
¸ I have purposely removed all manner of headers from the ng's lists in
¸ replying--- and THEY go right AHEAD AND ADD 'EM BACK IN.
¸ Seems more to me that you are simply saying that I should let them
¸ walk all over me, but I should never have the right to reply back to
¸ them.
If you DIDN'T reply to them, then the usenet system administrators
would believe you were the innocent party. What you asked for, having
the disruptive posts removed from a newsgroup to which you regularly
posted, has been done before. There are system admins who are very
sympathetic to the plight of innocent newsgroups being bombarded by
unwanted off topic postings. But the consensus that has emerged is
that if someone is replying in the flame thread, then they are doing
so voluntarilly and have no right to expect help in protecting their
newsgroup. alt.romath is globally propagated and is unmoderated and
open to all. If you'd kept your mouth shut and not replied, then yes
you would be in a position to ask for help from people in nanau. But
you didn't and you aren't.
You wanted to censor the people you didn't like in alt.romath, and you
went out asking for help in doing so. I emailed you, explaining why
that wasn't advisable and detailing for you the Briedbart Index, which
is the metric used in drawing the line for what is to be considered
cancelable spam. Since then, you have gone out of your way to break
the Briedbart Index limit. Now you're here playing dumb, claiming
that your deliberate system abuse should be ignored, but that the
posts of people you can't get along with should be canceled because
you don't like them. Either you're trying to play dirty and failing
miserably, or you really are dumb.
¸ > YES I know others
¸ >are disrupting newsgroups, but they aren't doing anything cancelable.
¸
¸ ^^How not? They are STILL using stolen lines, and constantly reposting
¸ those SAME lines.
sig files are not counted when calculating the Briedbart Index. Maybe
you could write that down yourself on a postit note and stick it to
your monitor so I wouldn't have to tell that to you in each response.
And what are stolen lines? Are you refering to the quotes attributed
to yourself in these .sig files? Quoting publicly published material
falls under the fair use restrictions of copyright law.

It takes two to tango, Elaine. If you don't reply to someone, they
grow bored and go away eventually. If you flame them, then of course
they're going to stick around. They're trolls, for crying out loud.
What did you expect?

Crossposting is OK.

That's allowed.

You have the right to be trollbait if you want. You don't have the
right to spam, however. (And before you start squawking, remember
that spam only means the same thing many times. How many "drivel
removed posts did you make?)

Sig lines don't count. If they did, everyone with a sig would have
their articles canceled. And it doesn't matter what the content of a
sig file is.

No, alt.romath serves a very useful purpose. It is a gathering place for
people of unpopular or contraversial viewpoints. It's traffic is ten times
what it was when Doctor Watson operated a net-stalking discussion group.
Your mistake was creating the group in the first place. I know you're going
to tell us it was Vianet's fault and not yours, however if you had responded
civilly to the first scouts who visited your group, none of this would have
happened.
Your bad manners and aggressive net-copping brought this whole mess down on
yourself.
The other solution would be just to shove off. Disappear and forget
alt.romath ever existed. Change your name to avoid people confusing you with
our newsgroup. That would be the best resolution all round.
Best Wishes,

She was rude to me right from the get go.All I ever wanted to do
was learn how to become a crackerjack spamchaser like her.
I idolized that woman and she stabbed me in the back.

Besides which she has become sort of an embarrassment for us.
Kinda like a crazed aunt that you'd keep naked and locked in
the attic.

**No way was it Vianet's fault--- I SAID that they went ahead and
created the ng BEFORE I could change the name to
alt.spam.investigations.
You are once more trying to put words in my message that I never said.

**I have no intentions of abandoning the name just because you and

It is quite a valid name-- the name I've had since day one on
Usenet---- and I intend to continue with it.

Not yet. I also don't seem to be getting all of your articles that
you post.

No, they're just taking their time propagating.
I owe you, nor anyone else ANY explanation for my activities, and
refuse to accept blame for that which I am not to blame for.
I still fight spam and sleaze. If you object, I cannot help that.
Believe whatever you like. And why, I might add, do you crosspost this
to nanau and nap?
sure-- I'm leaving this one in---- only to reply--
Bye now.

What exactly do you mean by fighting "sleaze"?

Now I'm really curious. Are you saying that these "invaders" simply
targeted your group for no reason whatsoever? Why your group in
particular? What did you do to attract such attention?

Did you actually post the addresses of that guy's parents? Your answer
sounded a little evasive to me...

No, let's discuss it here in the newsgroup, so that your assertions
can be debated.
cu's post was an accurate synopsis of Romath's conduct. I stand by it
100%

As is Burke's practice, he is trying to lay bait out again in order to

She is strongly anti-porn, and uses "spam fighting" as a front to wage
her self righteous censorship campaign.

Does this mean anti-porn completely? Or just anti-porn when it comes to
spam?
