damn, this beer (proper ENGLISH beer), seems to be affecting my spalling - see below post.

Not so fast, buck-o. You still have to deal with me. Name your race. I'll smoke you like a cheap
cigarette.

He's posting from: 81.131.90.21 which is: dial81-131-90-21.in-addr.btopenworld.com at this date and

Now, when I was a network admin here in the US, one of our employees received a threatening email.
Using information like that posted above, we contacted the sender's ISP and asked them to save
their access server logs. Then we involved the authorities, who issued a subpoena for the name and
account information of the user dialed in to that IP address at that time. The information was then
released to the police, who visited this peron in uniform at his place of employment. They then
told the person he'd threatened his identity (for their own protection). This person also
complained to the sender's employer, since he'd been dialed in to the internet from his office
during business hours. He ended up writing a formal letter of apology and "resigning" from his
position by the end of the week.

In order for the police to be involved, the posting has to (1) volate the law and (2) be in their
jursdiction. I don't think the law has been broken, and I certainly don't know any police with
jursdiction in England.

Another way to obtain these records via subpoena in the US is to sue. Not sure how that works in the
UK either.

Yet another option is to share his behaviour (UK spelling!) with his ISP. Here's their Usenet

To complain directly to his ISP about abusive behaviour, see:

http://www.btopenworld.com/helpnb/contactus/security

Be sure include at least one of his messages, and include all of the message headers.

Won't his daddy be mad when his btopenworld account is suspended because of little ecce's antics?

Happy troll slaying, all!

That last sentence doesn't make sense "...he'd threatened his identity....." ??????

I don't know how to write letters.

I don't have a position to resign from.

I HAVE NOT BROKEN ANY LAWS.

INFACT, IF YOU HAVE READ MY LEGAL DISCLAIMERS, AND ANY LETTER OF ANY WORD IN ANY OF MY MESSAGES EVER
POSTED FROM THE ABOVE MENTIONED IP ADDRESS YOU HAVE ENTERED INTO AN ELECTRONIC, LEGALLY BINDING
CONTRACT THAT VOIDS YOUR RIGHT TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST ME FOR ANY MATERIAL POSTED IN ANY ANY
MESSAGE IN ANY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. so there ! Ha !

It doesn't - there is no such stupid "law"

DUHHHHHHHHHH, can't I just sign up with another usenet provider ?

What about if I start posting from my local library - they have over 50 computers there.

Can't I use my brother's computer?

Or my sister's computer?

Or my cat's computer?

or my dog's computer?

>Happy troll slaying, all!

BT may well kick my ass, but I don't care because they are a bunch of idiots anyway - plus I doubt
if they will because they're strapped for cash.

Well done. You can use the 'properties' tab and 'ping'.

> > USENET - Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) Introduction

<snipped BT AUP>

A few abuse reports will probably work. BT have a fairly tight policy on this sort of thing.
However, all you'll do is to drive 'ecce' into setting up a chain of remailers, point him towards
www.rosstech.b0x.com where he can read how oher trolls work, and become A LOT more proficient as a
troll than he is now.

The ONLY advice that works is the oft-quoted 'ignore the troll', yet few can resist, Ah well, that's
life. Nothing's perfect.

Roger.
