Hello. I will post my thoughts here:
1. Preventing this kind of activity- I'm sure the moderators
work very hard to make sure this kind of stuff doesn't happen,
but you have to realize that there is no guarantee of this kind
of activity ever being completely stopped. As our list
troublemaker has said in his emails, he will continue to make new
email accounts, and use them to join the list. I'm sure that
when this happens, the moderators will ban the account as soon as
they can. All I'm saying here is that you can't expect them to
be able to block every bit of spam that comes to the list. Even
if Google takes legal action against the spammer, it is always
posible for another one to come along. Unfortunately, that's the
way the web works.
2. Unsubscribing- I'm glad some people who have considered
unsubscribing have decided not to. Personally, I think that
making this decision is overreacting. If someone is going to
unsubscribe from a mailing list just because one person made
trouble, then they might as well unsubscribe from every list they
are on. Because it is almost a guarantee that something like
this will eventually happen on every mailing list that you may be
on. Again, while preventing spam is certainly possible, stopping
it entirely is not.
3. Crash codes- The good news is that the crash codes may be
fixed in the next version of KeySoft. If I recall correctly,
Rajmund sent a message to this list awhile ago saying that he
could not crash hw's apex running KeySoft 9.4, with the wednesday
crash code. If this is truely the case, then part of the problem
should be fixed soon.
4. Large threads- I am not a moderator, but I'm beginning to
think that there is no longer a need to be discussing these
matters. A lot of the email I have read today have been
repetitive and have contained no useful information. So, I think
it is time for threads related to the spam to come to an end.
Moderators, I apologize if it is not my place to make a remark
like this.
I'm sorry if this message upsets anyone. I'm not trying to be
harsh, I am just being honest about what I think.
Josh

Subject: [BNU] My Thoughts on Recent List Activities
Dear BrailleNote Users and Moderators,
I would like to share my thoughts on the recent activities that
have taken place on this list. I do not appreciate reading curse
words on a public list. I have considered unsubscribing from
this list but I decided not to. I really hate to see someone
leave this list because of the crash codes that were sent to us.
I hope the moderators will take the appropriate action to stop
this from happening again. I have not replied to any of the
crash code threads. Please respond as soon as possible.
