I wonder why someone who chooses to behave the way Mike does would choose

work, maybe?


I was not part of the contract making process. My ISP signed up with
Supernews and I had nothing to do with it.

Care to try again to blame me?

Supernews was contrated to supply access to newsgroups by my ISP, that is
all... now they have taken upon themselves to censor and block people after

Spam?  It is perfectly fine to have a link in your signature.  But not

running rampant in Supernews.

Try posting a link to ArtistMike.com if you are posting through
Supernews, and your message will be blocked.

Do you like being censored?  I hope so.


hahahaha.


You are still misinformed as to the definition of Bigot. What you mean to
say is Supernews is prejudiced in your case. That would be true, since they
are prejudiced about spammers.

It is Super News that Supernews filters spammers and liars like you!!!

When I briefly looked, before this turned into a fiasco,
what it looked like was that his posts got caught and
were filtered using the URL as the common identifier.  So
he worked this out and munged the URL to get by the
filter, and his account was blocked at that point.  I saw
nothing to suggest that any complaints were received or
acted upon, but I wouldn't be in a position to know that
first-hand.

Based upon what you describe you saw he WAS blocked for what
Supernews considers spam: his url in his sigs.

That leaves the matter of the fake-Mike posts you quoted in
this group. The fake posts you say have nothing to do with
Mike's block. But you will never tell why you did that. So
he will always be seen as a faking spam flooder because some

It is a good outcome when long term spammers like Christy
are disciplined. His type lack self-discipline, and are in
perpetual denial. His fantasy world implodes when a news
provider acts to curb his troll-spamming. He whines for a while
and finds another news provider and gets on with his silly little
troll life.

Supernews have been made to look like the conscience of America
when all they really do is discipline a chronic spammer in a
minor way.

So, you're a moron.

What motivation is there for Supernews personnel to lie? What
motivation is there for you to lie? What motivation is there for Mike
Christy to lie?

Supernews *has* tolerated Uni, *has* lifted blocks when people have
asked about them in civilized ways, and has an excellent reputation
for being one of the better filtering news services. If that's not
what you want, buy an Altopia account, try to persuade Demon to go
with another more lenient provider.

Basically, there are people who don't want a filtered service. You
should be able to find something that suits you if the majority of
Demon users want the filtered service.

That may be what you think I wrote, but I wrote that the forgeries were done
after I was blocked and I did not write them. You attempted to use them as
evidence that I spammed, but I was already blocked by Supernews.

You attempted to use them as evidence that I spammed, but you screwed up. I
did not write them, they were forgeries, and they were done after I was
blocked. So obviously I could not have done them. Unless of course your
blocking system does not work.

control messages in very small numbers.  Supernews didn't
come down on him, even though there was history between
Jeremy and the user.

And you're trying to tell me that they're going to lose
their objectivity in ArtistMike's case when they didn't
in cases that involved a man who had tried to hack
Nixon's home machine (and talked about it years later
here)?

How naive do you think I think you are?

Not so naive that I don't know you won't nudge from your
fixed opinion of Mike as a spammer and from defending
Supernews till hell freezes over.

I've seen the spam posts; I've seen him defend the "rights" of other
spammers. If you want to have spam in your Usenet, try Altopia. They
don't filter, but they do come down on newsgroup disruptors and on
spammers (and Altopia defines that as strictly if not more strictly
than Supernews -- they'd have nailed Mike Christy and fined him for
promoting a commerical site).


QUOTE

All of that has nothing to do with why Supernews shows fake
posts in connection to Mike. So, maybe I'm naive and you're
biased :-)

Jeremy is not [Email Removed].

Basically, nobody here, except for Mike and his ISP abuse people,
knows precisely why Supernews was filtering him, and in reality, that
is between Supernews and Mike's ISP. If Mike wants to post
correspondence between himself and his ISP over this, he always could
have done that. Since he's not done that, I'm not sure whether the
filter is at Supernews or at his ISP, who is just as capable of
blocking him from posting as Supernews, I suspect.

Those of us in the cheap seats don't know who's blocking him, or why,
really. Mike claims that his ISP told him that Supernews denies they
were blocking him, so perhaps his ISP is blocking him, or he's lying
like a spammer.

I suspect that most of the people commenting on this are just amusing
themselves. Supernews's reputation isn't going to be tainted by this,
but inhanced. They don't out details of their actions (or not, it is
possible that Mike is being blocked by his ISP for all you know) to
the merely curious.

What motivation is there for Supernews personnel to lie?

Maybe because they got busted for censoring a paying customer without just
cause?

Based upon what you describe you saw he WAS blocked for what
Supernews considers spam: his url in his sigs.


He wasn't just posting his url in his sigs. He was posting his url in
message bodies as "answers" to questions and as out and out
self-promotion (the ArtistMike fan posts).

Posting *just* to get a url out is spam -- and posting a url in the
message body as an answer to a question that could more legitimately
be answered by something less self-serving and more useful (say a
pointer to software that does raster to vector conversions) is spam.

You'd have to be blind or really really dishonest not to have come
across examples of that while Googling ArtistMike.

I vote for really dishonest.

I came here because of the rumours about Supernews blocking

Of course, they do. Rather than block spammers, and allow innocent user
articles to migrate to their server, from other NSPs, they block the
ENTIRE NSP, in spite.

Mike...
Standard Operating Procedure for Supernews. If you stand up for yourself
they will do their best to pound you right back down.

Censorship and bigotry in action.

And for those of you that don't know what the word BIGOTRY means...

1. The state of mind of a bigot; obstinate and unreasoning attachment of
one's own belief and opinions, with narrow-minded intolerance of beliefs
opposed to them.


Now you can stop crying about the word bigotry being use in the wrong way.

hahahaha.

I just received this message from them after three months of requesting a
"Review". Before I posted here under Lord Pander there was no response at
all. Now not only do they deny that the posts where fake (I have proven so
to the isp of the person who forged them), but they are threatening to
completely block me now. Way to treat a paying customer don't you think?
Give their statement a read and see for your self.

=-------------------------------=
You are blocked for previous abusive behaviour.  We can make that
more thorough (ie, block your "Lord Pander" posts as well), but
haven't had any complaints and until you brought it up in abnsc
wouldn't have bothered to make the connection.

No one "faked the trace information" or any such thing, either.
That's almost such a poor excuse to make me think there is something
to it, but since we're looking at our logs and not at the articles
people send in then any sort of attempt to frame you would require
far more effort.

If you'd like this reviewed, have your ISP contact us on your
behalf.  We'll explain the entirity of the situation to them along
with our recommendations and see if something can be worked out.

Supernews Abuse Desk
=----------------------------------=

By the way, my ISP already has contacted them and told them nothing about it
but to have my contact them myself. At least I got a reply this time, al be
it nonsense. So you can see what happens when you don't bend over for their
tyrannical corporate policies. I did not take the time to correct their
spelling by the way.

This only leaves me to think ho many others there are out there that have
had this happen to them and why. Are they trying to cover their tracks? Well
yes they are, they incompetent? Well yes they are. When the guilty party
admits online to doing this to people and his ISP pulls his account after I
and others complained (and they actually investigated), supernews is still
holding to the part line. After all if they are wrong about this one, how
many other victims are there? Maybe enough for a class action lawsuit? Think
about it, it has been done before. Supernews is starting to look like the
Enron of the news server set.

And yes I expect them to carry out their threat now and block me completely.
Too bad the ISP I am switching to next month does not use them.

Your list of 11 socks and frogs was impressive. I do believe a few abuse
complaints may be registered with astraweb and Mike is possibly going to
have to find another NSP. Hopefully he will learn (unlikely given his
association with Uni) from this mistake and be able to keep his next
account.

Do try to keep Mike entertained while I am gone.

Bye Y'all


Crybabies and tattle tails... how funny.

And you are just a spammer without just cause.

Since you were NEVER a supernews customer, you just LIED as usual.

Now Spin some more fairy tales my little pet.
