From Supernews TOS
 
"Disruptors who "nym-shift" or use "sock puppets" to avoid killfiling
are most likely to have action taken; likewise if they resort to
flooding (by our standards - it needn't be hundreds of articles per
day), repeatedly posting binaries to non-binary groups, or clearly
state that it is their intent to disrupt the group."


Jonathan Ganz has repeatedly altered his name and email addy
to avoid filters which is a violation of the Supernews TOS which
is why I sent an abuse letter in to them reporting and listing with
cut and paste at least 20 examples of abuse of this policy.

I will no longer tolerate his abuse. If any of you feel the same
please report him too. Enough complaints and he will end up
looking for a new news server. He needs to grow up.

Hahahahahaa.... right. That should be pretty funny coming from someone who
is a known liar.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. You've been attempting to
disrupt this group since you crawled from under your rock. You're a
misogynistic asshole, who is only interested in your own agrandizement.

================================================== ===================
If you are a Supernews user who is experiencing problems posting and
suspect you may have run afoul of our abuse filters, your mail may
not be handled in a timely manner unless you include the word
"Review" in the subject or otherwise use a concise subject stating
the problem. Review responses may take some time; if the initial
investigation shows that you are being filtered with cause (ie, to
prevent further spamming or newsgroup disruption) any reply may take
some time. "False positives" (posts filtered due to a glitch in the
filters) will typically receive immediate attention to identify and
resolve the cause of the problem and a quick (24-72 hour) response.
================================================== ===================

This address is only for reporting spam or abusive posts originating
from Supernews.com . It _is_ against our policy for our users to
spam, and we have zero tolerance for spammers - they lose posting
privileges or their account immediately. We keep our anti-spam
measures up to date and focus our energies on preventing any spam
from ever leaving our site - on some days more than 50,000 attempted
posts are not accepted from our users because they meet various
criteria we use to identify spam. We may not respond to your mail
due to this focus on action, not words, and any reply that you do
get may not be immediate.

For best results, be sure to include the entire headers from at least
one of the posts you are reporting. Including any text portions of
the body (not uu/base64-encoded portions, please) may also give us
more useful information to go on. The most important headers for our
uses a

Path:
From:
Message-ID:

If you do not include the Message-ID of the post you are reporting, we
cannot guarantee that the matter will even be investigated.

Please try to verify that the post was made by one of our users.
This can be done by examining the headers as follows:

All of our headers include an X-Complaints-To: containing an
" address. In addition, if the Path contains
"sn-post-##" or "sn-uk-post-01" the post almost certainly came from
one of our users (or was forged to give that appearance). Articles
from our users will contain no X-Trace or NNTP-Posting-* header, but
will contain an X-Complaints-To: header refering to an address at
supernews.{com,net,co.uk}.

If you are reporting posts which infringe on copyrights which you
hold, your report must comply with the notification provisions of
the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. We can respond to you more
quickly if you include the message-id of the post you are reporting.
The message-id may be located in the header of the message. The
report will be sent to our legal department, who will contact you
with further details at their first opportunity if deemed
appropriate. It is best to address such reports to
", as that will insure prompt attention.

Reports of child pornography should be reported using the resources
available at http://www.missingkids.com/cybertip. They will pass the
information to the relevant law enforcement agency.

If you are reporting abuse which is not spam (repeated posts with
essentially the same content), child pornography, or copyright
infringement, please be sure to include information spelling out why
the post is "abusive".

Trolling, flaming, "off topic posting" and "unacceptable language
for this newsgroup" are often subjective, and without your reasoning
behind the complaint we may not understand why action is required.
We will deal with individuals who are bent on newsgroup disruption
as best we can, but a pattern of abuse must be established.
Complaints from more than one regular from the group being affected
are helpful to show that the user has violated "community
standards", etc. In cases of flame wars we will not take sides, and
we will not just "squelch" our user so that the battle is
conveniently over with someone else left standing. Also, the use of
profanity is not considered an actionable offense unto itself.
Usenet newsgroups are adult in nature, and parents should screen
posts to insure they are acceptable before allowing their children
to read them. nfilter (see more information below) can filter based
on the body of the post, allowing automated screening of posts for
profanity should a user find it objectionable and wish to avoid
those posts.

Don't "feed" or "poke" the trolls, and try to get your group to use
killfiles and ignore them. nfilter, available for free at
www.nfilter.org, can add sophisticated news filtering options to
most newsreader software which does not already include such
functionality, although you may wish to investigate other
newsreaders with built in filter capabilities first. The alt.cuddle

Reports of forgery or impersonation should be mailed from the
address being forged/impersonated, or other information
substantiating that you are the "rightful user" of the name or
domain should be provided. Forgery and impersonation must be easily
seen - simple use of a regular's non-unique given name when
"signing-off" (without the use of their signature, address, last
name, etc, or near matches) is hard to establish as forgery or
impersonation unless they in some way directly claim to be the other
person. We will gladly block forged addresses and improper use of
someone else's domain, but we need to hear from the owner of the
address/domain, and have that "ownership" validated in some manner
(by exchanging mail or a 'whois').

Non-exact forgeries (ie, ) are difficult to
block (as they can change), and are arguably not actual forgeries
but parodies. We will do what we can, but cannot make any
guarantees. Ignoring parodies is likely to yield the best results.

Capt. Neal® December 8th 04 08:36 PM

It is not wise to count chickens before they are hatched.

The Gay One is probably just pouting and busy plotting revenge.
His type of psychotic personality does not readily admit mistakes
nor does it take responsibility for those mistakes. His is the typical
liberal mindset for which most all liberals will burn in hell.

It would be great, however, if Supernews had complaints on him
prior to mine. As rudely and crudely as the Gay One treated
Katysails and Lady Pilot, for example, I wouldn't be surprised if
one or both those fine ladies sent in abuse complaints prior to
my doing so. Who knows who else could no longer abide his
constant trolling and disruption of this group and also complained.
(God has his ways of punishing evil.)

If this the case, my complaint letter which documented, with
the cut and paste of headers and body in some cases, twenty
or so cases of name changes and address changes to bypass
filters and killfiles combined with the text in some of these
posts where he bragged about doing it might have been the
straw that broke the camel's bake.

Let's all pray that the Gay One be delivered from evil which
has him firmly in its grip. It is never too late to change one's
errant ways until such time one finds himself roasting in
Hell for all eternity.
