nuxx bar - action commenced

On 03/10/2008 13:05, Tim Dunne said,

Is there any chance you might stop acting the plank anytime soon? Did
you read the o/p at all?

Can I ask what I've ever done to you? You seem to be constantly making
digs at me for no apparent reason. Yes, I did read the OP. So what?
The bit I was pointing out was the irony in Nuxx saying that he can't
have a discussion because he's right. Do you not see the irony in that?

Plonk.

Jesus Christ - are you all thick? The utter irony of the comment Nuxx
made must have gone straight over all of your heads.

In your case though, Rob, you're another one who always argues with
everything I say, so just in case you do read this I'm glad that you
will no longer be able to see my posts to argue.

Nothing whatsoever, but you seem to be a little hard of thinking at the
moment, thats all.

The part that read 'The solicitor recommends that all members of this
group cease responding to the individual known as nuxx bar and do not
respond to any email which is or is suspected to be from him' is
significant, as is the fact that by replying you seem willing to
encourage the moron...

The situation passed the irony point and moved into tedium several weeks
ago. Just ignore the **** for the time being.

Do you actually believe that a post from an anonymous new poster should
be taken as read? Maybe it's real, maybe it isn't.

What I thought I'd made clear in a previous post is that I strongly
object to being told who I can and can't respond to. We do not live in
a dictatorship. The point you all seem to have missed is that if you
don't want to see certain threads, you can kill them. Therefore as far
as you're concerned they do not exist, and cannot bother you. Why is
that so hard to understand? I do that with any thread where "judith" has
contributed, or Ed Dolan, for instance. Other people do the same with
MattB or JNugent, or even Nuxx Bar. You too can do the same. If you
do, Nuxx Bar can write as much as he likes and people can respond as
much as they like, and you won't have a clue it even happened.

Well, to me it looks as if what is going on is that you are
encouraging a known proven troll to spew more crap into a newsgroup I
value. What did you think was going on?

I have to say, as a long-time lurker and very occasional poster (and
cyclist/motorist), this is the most pathetic argument I've seen on usenet in
a while.

Paul is spot on, haven't you lot heard of blocking posts or k/f ing posters
you don't want to see??

As for legal action? christ, my kids have more sense of reality than some
people here. This is usenet for crying out loud...;-)

Phew, thank God you resisted the temptation to continue the argument!
How stupid would that have been

Some email has been exchanged outside the newsgroup.

The motzarella.org account used by nuxx bar has, according to their
abuse department, been terminated.

The ISP used for posting most of nuxx bar's messages has also been
notified of several instances of forged headers from the account which
is a violation of their terms of service. *The IP addresses and
timestamps are stated to be sufficient to identify the account. *Their
abuse department is working on this.

Legal opinion has been obtained. Some statements made by nuxx bar
constitute libel and are considered actionable. The ISP used by nuxx
bar has been contacted and the process for discovery of subscriber
details, including name and address, has been commenced. *The
solicitor's opinion is that the ISP will release the details and that
a civil case is likely to succeed. *A criminal prosecution is unlikely
but the current trend is for significant damages to be awarded in
cases of online harassment. *Separately the ISP may take legal action.

A member of this newsgroup has obtained what he believes to be the
real-world identity of nuxx bar. *This will be compared with the
details from the ISP when they arrive.

The solicitor recommends that all members of this group cease
responding to the individual known as nuxx bar and do not respond to
any email which is or is suspected to be from him.


You've just made that all up to scare Nuxxy off

In a reasoned thread about not stirring up idiot trolls and general
agreement that it's quite straightforward to ignore them, you decide
to respond to a troll, and don't even make any pretence of doing so to
right a wrong or correct a fallacy or set the record straight.

Maybe the trollfest is over, I don't know. I just had an abusive
"number withheld" call, which leads me to wonder if perhaps nuxxy's
ISP haven't just ToS'd him.
