What is happening in this group
I have been in this group for some months.
What in the world happened here? I mean all the trash made by Nomen Nescio. Is there no law to stop the offending expression against mrtravel everyday? Even striking is that he posts the trash without anybody's protest. I can't believe one spiteful person can totally ruin a community. Earlier in a group, there is someone like Nomen. We all call him 'stinky bottom'. He disappeared some time later. However the stinky should be real gentleman compared with Nomen. Hey, Nomen, please stop before everybody takes action against you. |

Even striking is that he posts the trash without anybody's protest. Han, anyone that protest against him is also subject to harassment. Nomen/Userbeam/whatever doesn't seem to think he is doing anything wrong, he says, but then he hides behind an anonymous remailer. He has no evidence to back up his claims, but there are some people that will believe anything if they hear it often enough, even from someone who appears to be mentally unstable. You made an interesting statement about people not protesting, but you indicated you have been here for months, and this is the first I have noticed from you. Generally, as long as they are the ones being harassed, people don't care. There are laws against what he is doing, however, enforcement is a problem. I have filed reports with various law enforcement agencies, but I doubt any real effort in finding him has taken place. People have recommended that I not respond to him. I have tried that for months at a time, and he still kept responding to my on topic posts. The only way for him to stop posting such trash would be if I stopped posting to Usenet. |

What sort of action do you think we're able to take?
There isn't a headmaster to report anyone to. Learn how to use a killfile. On the message which you find offensive or abusive, click on the [Show Options] lable located to the right of the author's name. On this options menu select [Report Abuse] Login in to google groups if you don not see this option. The new web page will have the thread and post information filled in. In the comments box enter why you believe the post to be inappropriate or abusive. (Being in disagreement with the opinions of the author does not count as a reason.) Be specific as possible but also try to keep your comments brief. |

As far as I know there is no law against what he is doing so I doubt that it is a criminal mattter of interest to the police, who will politely take your info and spend their resources on real crime. I was told he could be charged under California penal code 646.9 Do you think that accusing someone of being a pedophile and posting their address immediately following is a risk to their safety? |

This is largely a civil matter unless you are literally threatened with bodily harm, and your recourse would be a defamation lawsuit. Might not be worth the trouble, though. People have recommended that I not respond to him. I have tried that for months at a time, and he still kept responding to my on topic posts. The only way for him to stop posting such trash would be if I stopped posting to Usenet. You could a t least killfile him. ************* DAVE HATUNEN ) ************* * Tucson Arizona, out where the cacti grow * * My typos & mispellings are intentional copyright traps * |

I was called that once, but the namecaller was in Canada, making a suit difficult but not impossible; he was sued by The Amazing Randi. To sue, you must first find out who he is. |

Then use it. And please, never post a comment on one of these twits without snipping the post you're responding to. Alan, Australia |

Well, that may work if the offender is in california, if you can track them down, if they aren't minors, if.... If it's worth the hassle. Use killfiles. Cheers, Alan, Australia |
