If you are concerned about spam, you can use a disposable email forwarder
such as:

http://sneakemail.com/info.pl?sel=quick

If you get any spam traced to the site, just disable that email addy.

No need to logon. Just enter Sailnet in search on Home page and select first
article and you will be able to read all about it.

Wonder what will happen to all the email archives. Good information there?

In the local Business Section of the Charleston News & Courier daily
newspaper, here, there is a front page article discussing what happened to
Sailnet and a story about its demise....

Dot Bomb, indeed.

As soon as the server company doesn't get paid, it will all be erased....

Just received an email from Sailnet:

"It has come to the attention of SailNet that postings have appeared on
unmoderated forums that we host containing rumors and allegations
against
former and current management. We have no knowledge that any of the
claims
or allegations in these postings are true. We are attempting to remove

Sounds like SailNet CYA legal-speak.

If I recall items cannot be charged to your credit card until they are
shipped. This used to be a federal law but many states include these
codes verbatim in their state code. The best way to go about this is go
to your "local" ( sailor? ), try several Federal, sometimes state,
congress persons. Senator's offices are normally too busy but try.
Also it helps to get a bunch of people and go into their office
together then periodically send a new person in to complain to the
contact person.

Sometimes local law enforcement help but that is usually a joke. It
also may not be a crime. But I seem to recall it was.

The Feds had over 280,000 complaints about a debt collection agency
before they fined them $100,000. So federal law enforcement is a joke
unless ..... it comes from someone ..... a congress person's
office....

PS: loved the Sailnet site but what is this &$$$&%%^$%^$#$%^# Legal
proceedings against posters???? If Sailnet does file the posters are
going to end up with that Mercedes parked out front and a lot more.

SAILNET SUE ME PLEASE I WANT A 50+ FOOTER PLEASE PLEASE SUE ME
