Subject: How do these morons do this?
And why?

What the hell is the purpose of sending out 4-5k of useless random posts?

You can't even trust the senders name anymore-one post had responses from
this a$$hole supposedly from TechnoShroom, Scott Lindner and TARoque! How
did they pull THAT one off?

Two possibles:
1. It really is Supernews (which I doubt)?
2. It some piece of scum who can keep a job and
has nothing better to do than to masturbate
on the Internet.

In either case, it is a criminal act.

Lame script kiddies proving they are powerful by disrupting things.
It's the Usenet counterpart to spray painting naughty words on a
wall, only cheaper as they don't need to buy spray paint.

He should go back to masturbating 5 times per day instead of writing
abusive Usenet software - what a loser scientist geek!

If you check out 'sporge' flooding on Google, you will get the idea of
what's happening. It's not new, starting back in the late '90's apparently.
Wikipedia also has some info on it The name itself (sporge) is a combination
of spam and forge and forging regular users names is all part of it. I am
not going to look into it further, it supposedly has some tie-in with the
church of scientology.
I'll let others investigate further but I seriously doubt it will go on for
much longer. They move from one group to the next and as there are 10's of
thousands of groups, it's a bit like Haleys Comit, might be years before
they come around again.

In the meantime..........I've got some beer to make, now THAT's important.
