A problem user plaguing the Finnish-language newsgroups has obtained
an userid on your service. The methodology is the same as always
before: connecting from anonymous sources, continuous trolling as
forged senders with mostly single-line messages cross-posted or with
expanding followups to utterly irrelevant newsgroups. He seems to be
posting dozens if not hundreds of messages through your system.

This user has had multiple accounts revoked from many anonymous news
services like greatnowhere.com, motzarella.org, x-privat.org,
aioe.org, readfreenews.net and cuneo2lemon.net for these reasons. He
has also without permission used several mistakenly open news servers.
This user has on many occasions demonstrated being beyond any reason
or rational arguments and has continued this obsessive disruptive
behaviour now for several years.

I would recommend disabling crossposting/followup-to's to the sfnet.*
and finet.* newsgroups from your server, if at all possible.

When I a few weeks back began to run a script to supersede his garbage
messages with the same content posted only to a single newsgroup, he
started superseding the supersede messages (with headers claiming mine
were "rogue supersedes"). I would not be surprised to find that he had
also emailed you and ranted about freedom of speech or some dark
conspiracy to supress him or something?

Messages concerning this user and blocking him can be found in the
newsgroup sfnet.tietoliikenne.viestinviejat on the GoogleNews
archives. Please promptly take the appropriate action.

The sample below is posted to:
sfnet.atk.kulttuuri (it.culture)
With an expanding followup-to:
sfnet.harrastus.autot.tee-itse (hobby.cars.diy)
sfnet.harrastus.veneet (hobby.boats)
sfnet.keskustelu.yhteiskunta (discuss.society)

Sinulla ei siis ole munaa seisomaan päätöstesi takana?
