Not a bad idea. Hopefully someone is dumb enough to use a good address.

I help admin a site. I run new user emails and IP's through http://www.spambusted.com/search.php and if there's any reported activity, they don't get in.

Oooh! This is a nifty plan. Will run that idea by the powers that be.

I think they have some kind of partnering ap thing that you might be able to link into automatically. It helped cut down the spam attack we were under. Our defenses were being probed for about the last 2 weeks. Changing up the challenge question very slightly very often seemed to help. I think they would have to reconfigure their software for different challenge questions and the same question worded slightly differently required work.

As I said, you don't have to outrun the bear, you only have to outrun your buddy. Or, just be harder to spam than other sites

Was that your work? Man that was fast. Went from new post to locked post to no post. Good work.

Can you make my duplicate post disappear?

Yeah, that was me.

Yes, if I see a duplicate I can get it. Which thread? (or was it this one and you beat me to it?)

I'm not sure how you did that, but it's spooky, man...

If you really want to bombard these people with e-mails, sign them up for political party e-newsletters. Those people send out no less than 15 e-mails a day. I don't exaggerate.

That is great. I've been laughing so hard that I had to wait a few minutes before typing.

Well done, sir.

Hell, I'm a liberal, and I think those guys beg for money like Ernest Angley.

And is also signing up for updates from the American Communist Party. Who knew she lived in a substandard hotel in Starkville, Mississippi?

She was having trouble signing up for the newsletter from the KKK. She would appreciate it if anyone could find it for her. The light skinned family at the top of the page looked so nice and accepting.

I hate to spoil the fun but I hope none of these are people who have had their email accounts hacked and/or hijacked. I've had my hotmail account hacked a couple times and a couple of the recipients, who know me, thought it was serious though out of character for me.

Still funny though... I wonder if any of these fine upstanding citizens have signed up for the NAMBLA newsletter?
