As can be seen from their posts,
"Art Deco", "Bob Officer", "Cujo DeSockpuppet", "Puddleduck", "Meat Plow",
and a small group of low self-esteem, bigoted sociopaths are turning the
Internet into a vast sewer.
Rather than mud wrestling with them, I simply call attention to their posts
without comment.
The question is, what can be done to keep anonymous perverts and sociopaths
from destroying the Internet?
As rats, roaches, criminals, sociopaths, and other vermin
fear exposure and tend to fade away when exposed to light,
here's what could be done to prevent a few perverts and sociopaths
from turning your newsgroup into a sewer.
1. Post their real names, addresses and employers on the Internet.
2. Post their pictures and other personal data on the Internet.
3. Report them to their ISP and Google
4. Sue them in local Small Claims courts
5. Report them to law enforcement when they commit crimes such as forging
users names,
identity theft, soliciting children, etc.
