    Default Spammer Shut Down Thanks To Wilderness-Survival.net

    I just received the following email from the ISP that hosted their blog.

    "We're doing our best to keep up with users who may be abusing our site; however, we do miss some, so thanks for letting us know. I've shut down that account and will look into the IP address from where the account originates."

    At least the Blog went belly up!

    There is no greater solitude than that of the Tracker in the forest, unless perhaps it's that of the wolf in the wilderness.

    That spammer was not very considerate of me, being under 18. Damn robots have no control

    This wasn't a bot. Someone had to enter the image verification at login before they could post.

    <Applause> Of course, the only good spammer is a dead spammer, but this is a start.

    Well done Rick...but I'd expect nothing less from the Director of Foolingaroundology
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    people register for them on all forums, but bots do all of the posting (or at least a lot of it)
