The spam was not in responce to your post it was in responce to 5 or so people not wanting to ahere to the license agreement on my code and it boils down to "It's free no one forces you to use it. If you don't like the license don't use it." That thread was ended a little while ago and if one of the asses you are refering to is me I apologize it did get out of hand. Sorry for the spam. Kyle Goodwin ---------- From: Christopher Avans <parka@CDC.NET> To: CIRCLE@post.queensu.ca Subject: The members of this list. Date: Saturday, June 20, 1998 4:23 AM I have recently experienced a rash of spam to my mailbox from a couple of members of this list. This is a turning into a problem of all cap flames. To be honest I do not have a _clue_ as to why, until it was pointed out to me that it was spawned in responce to my post about an aternative to the mapping system. Seems that a circle of friends didnt liek the fact I presented an alternative to thier system. I ask you and the admins of this site in helping me stop this barrage of flame/spam mail to my mailbox. I would hope this stops it if not I would be comforted in knowing that the admins of this list is willing to not support such childish efforts. Man please this is insane. I have recieved over 20 letters from this asses in the last hour. Each is increasing in thier rudeness. I know i have been outspoekn about being more productive towards newbies, that led to a little back and forth. However in this case I get spammed to _hell_ for posting a aternative to an idea? Is this not the heart of a mailing list. The exchange of ideas? O well as I said I hope to stay on this list and I hope taht the admins will not support people who act in such a manner. +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+ +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
