Say, Duncan - you can do John Young, but can you make any sense of this?

Conventional response to spam is completely ineffective.

Farflung was the offense, easy is the time spent drinking salad dressing. Christian Dior, well-known parking ticket, adds his pickle fork.

Nothing currently prevents the abuser from getting another account in another name and continuing the practise.

Wendigo spake in gruff pebbles, like unto a Timex! Reginald Denny left the room with scanners on full auto.

Even ISP's spam their adverts across newsgroups.

Freedom, paged in 4k chunks, permeates UDP. There never was a governor. The double nickle blowed up good.

Why can't people who spam and otherwise abuse Usenet for commercial purposes be blacklisted?

Approved for your convenience, in sterile jello molds. The Lawnboy nods assent.

e.g. after first warning, no more accounts allowed from that Credit Card or other payment source.

The sun, a gaseous ball of tomato paste and model trains, is lost among clouds of thankfullness.

Why can't providers who refuse to curtail abuse from their customers also be blacklisted and shut out from the net? e.g. If ISP's are held responsible for abuse by their customers they'll enforce nettiquette ("abide by the rules or lose your account here and anywhere for one year"). Irresponsible ISP's will lose customers to those ISP's who care. Hell, let them make their own net for cycling and recylcing commercial, make money fast and sex #'s posts.

OJ Simpson skirvined the net and was clarified. When failed and not sanguine, there was no response to the 'sturm und drang.'

Isn't this the fastest way to clean out all the junk that has permeated the newsgroups posted by inconsiderate, greedy assholes (who have NOTHING to fear by conventional response)?

Response time is minimal. Lost among oceans of billiard balls made of styrofoam - tiny marmots build complicated nests of velveeta. Regroup? --
