TB 2000 Spammed Again

Internet - For the second day in a row, one of the most popular and interesting boards on the Internet has endured incessant spamming by a cyber predator.

Dr. Hesays Spamnomore, Director of the Spamometer Institute, says, "These spam attacks are similiar to any other form of terrorism...the perpetrator declars a mission and tries to justify the reason for the attack...it's very sad, but these violations are costing people time and money...it's a "cyber robbery" of sorts and spammers do not listen to reason. You can not negotiate with a terrorist--so the spammers must be dealt with in the same manner as any other criminal."

Not everyone agrees with Dr. Spamnomore, "I don't see the harm in it," says JimmyCrackhead Corn, a regular internet forum visitor.

The incident is under scrutinty and no further information is available at this time.

Dee, we got too close to the truth. LL is not a lone gunman. Is she?

can't happen,

No, LOL...Art Bell and Sigtings on the Radio, World Net Daily, etc. would have been offline a long time ago if that were the case. This forum does not pose a threat to anyone in the gov...it's a great place for open source intel and news. The fed is more concerned with wacko hackers at this time. There are lot of really good people who work for the gov...more good than bad IMHO. Sometimes people abuse their power, no matter who they work for. ;-)

What a coincidence, a popular and interesting forum was spammed on the same day as TB2000. What do you think the odds of that happening are? ;-)
