I like that as well. I got the same "ticket no." response,
but hell I've gotten those in the past, never goes anywhere
oftentimes.
I figured between those of us who bothered we were having
some impact as I haven't seen him for a few days now.



I tried being nice about it with a personal email to his
yahoo account, but ... HE made his choice.

And 'you know who' next ! Just wanted to polish my skills up. Haven't needed
to do this for quite a while. Plus it proves to the naysayers that properly
constructed abuse reports are indeed effective.

Sometimes you never get to know other than the problem stops.

All too right. It never fails to amaze me how abusers think they can just
get away with it.

But when they find sleazy providers like buzzardnews (who either don't
care, or are actually complicit in the abuse) they CAN get away with it.

The days are gone with nodes were controlled by idealistic, conscientious
administrators. The ranks now include sleazebags, commercial spammers,
and big corporations who assign clueless drones to whatever minimal
NNTP operations they can get away with. I'm sure we can all provide
actual names for each of those categories.

Haven't had a go at buzzard yet, but a friendly sysop elsewhere said a long
time ago, look for their upstream provider and grab their balls. A simple
traceroute does it. Buzzard won't go far with zero connectivity.

Altopia used to be a real problem provider but I've had their balls too and
they actually enforce their AUP now (at least after a fashion).

Hey, I even got an anonymiser to drop a client. You just need the knack.

Buzzard appears to be a subsidiary operation of a larger holding
company. Dunno whether the "parent" company might have any
rational management?

Time to take a look perhaps. I have a few heads in my sights right now.
