anyways, i keep asking but nobody really is answering my question. is this going on now and who's doing it?

The last ones I received came in last Wednesday in de ECHO_ADDS and FIDONEWS area. On Tuesday they were posted in FIDONEWS and FNEWS_PUBLISH. Those were the first ones in May. But there were a lot more in March and all through April, but from different systems...

You guys have all the power to block posts not only by name but my
text strings or anything you can think of.
We've dealt with someone much worse than this guy using different
