I do make sure everything gets an answer. As I'm awake more hours than not, that also usually means that I'm the first responder also. Me actually flaming someone is pretty rare. I'll also assume you skipped over the numerous "thanks" received while focusing on the "flaming" ...????

Just one of the threads in one SpamCop newsgroup pointed to previously. There are other threads in the other Archives also. The Forum versus the newsgroups has come up often over the years. > If that is the issue, I can not use forums if an issue happens.

Just as in these newsgroups, the action is user-to-user support. Yes, I'm filling the Admin slot, (there is a story behinf that) but .... there are several other folks with Moderating powers, and there are a number of others with relatively prolific postings. Some Topics I don't need to jump into as they were handled by other folks. > I really like the Spamcop idea from early beginnings of it and as a way > to show my support, I paid for yearly mail service. Technically, you have been paying JT for his resources ... these newsgroups, the Forum, and the SpamCop E-mail accounts are all run on his hardware. The use of a SpamCop account also has the side benefit of a 'free' reporting account. > If "JT" is more interested in diverting people from a standard based > support NNTP server to some web board administered by non responsible > (in financial, work terms) third parties ego, I am out. As seen in the referenced ancient newsgroup threads, one would ask where you've been. As far as non-responsivle (in work terms) ... once again .... over the last two years ..screw it, here's a copy of a recently posted bit into another thread (as it turns out, in this very newsgroup) .... =-=-=-=-==-=-=-=- As far as being paid ..... all work done as a "volunteer" .... Admin / maintainer of the Forum http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/ Forum version of the SpamCop FAQ . much expanded http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=2238 SpamCop Glossary http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=4473 SpamCop Dictionary http://forum.spamcop.net/dict/ SpamCop KnowledgeBase http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?act=faq Portal Page for an introduction to everything SpamCop http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?act=home and more stuff under development as we speak .... the only "pay" received is the enjoyment of comments like this ... Thanks for the kind words. Please recollect that it was JT, owner of the systems that host these newsgroups, the Forum, and some of the other tools I've installed that made the call on SpamCop E-mail Account support issues .... =-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-
