What do you hope to achieve with these posts? Have a think about it, and
get back to us with an honest answer.

If you [censored] enough people off, people will leave these groups, you will no
longer have an audience.. so I can't really put my finger on your motives..
I'm happy to walk away from aus.bicycle for good, are you?

be a man, answer the question.

No, don't bite. Please. The _only_ way is to ignore these. He's
escalating this because Marty is either away, or is wisely ignoring the
posts. His escalation is because he's desperate for a response from
Marty, or anyone. It becomes no fun when people don't play along.

Everyone, please ignore him. You cannot argue with a troll. You cannot
make them see sense. They _do_ eventually go away when their target(s)
refuse to play.

Kill files, black list, message rules, and if these fail, the delete key.
He is not worth our attention.

I think it's the two
X-HTTP-UserAgent: .*MSIE 6\.0; AOL 9\.0
X-HTTP-Via: .*Velocity.*Turboweb
that mostly get him these days. No one legimate posts to a.b from
AOL.

I found an earlier version of these rules had blocked about 1/3 or
regular posters for a few days until I noted the absense of Bleve et
al who had one particular line in their headers that I thought only
Roger had.

I did a bit of blocking on Google Groups, but I'll give your rules a try
-- they're a little less indiscriminate. I also have a kill on

[*]
Score: -9999
Xref: .*:.*:.*:.*:.*

-- ie, if it's crossposted to five or more groups. (Strongly tempted to
jock that down to just two or three.)

Google groups is a pain, but I know a few people who I don't want to
killfile, who use it.

Yeah, I have other rules like that that apply to everywhere but
alt.religion.kibology, where more IS ALLOWED.
