thank you Chris for helping. I wish I had your brains about this internet stuff or I would have turned him in myself. But I'm learning...slowly but surely. Mother is proud of you. Thanks for watching my back! ;o)
Re: thank you Chris for helpin Thanks for reporting that Chris. I didn't see the posts until just now. It's good to know that someone did something. I also have reported. If any board members see more of Bobby's nonsense posts, I would appreciate you making a copy of it so that when the pbm deletes it, it will be available to me for future recourse. Thanks - LKH
Re: thank you Chris for helpin I sent a report to prserv.net as well. I think if I do not hear back from them that something was done, I will notify AT&T's abuse dept about their downstream ISP. -Dave
Re: thank you Chris for helpin we need the full DNS or IP address... ---.az.us.prserv.net We need the "---" portion to do anything. I received a response from the prserv.net abuse people.. The only ones who can give us the "---" are the admins for this board...
Re: Post another header asking I sent an email with a copy to pbm and webmaster of creditnet.com. -Dave
Re: Post another header asking Just like newsgroups, "public" bulletin boards like this one are often focuses of this kind of abuse and many times admins won't even look at it......
Re: Post another header asking Response from CreditNet ----------------------------------- Dear Straight Talk Patron, Thank you for your report. We do not condone and will not permit abusive behavior by board users. Though no summary judgements will be made, all complaints we receive are actively investigated, and action is taken when appropriate. We have added the offending IP address to our deny table. Note that the individual does not use a static IP address, and will therefore be able to return to the board if his/her IP address changes. However, we continue to monitor the board closely, and together with the help of board users such as yourself can respond quickly to disruptions on Straight Talk. To prevent similar behavior in the future we will be switching board software very soon. The new software will still allow everyone to read messages, but only members of the board will be able to post. We believe this step will help reduce the number of trolls and offensive postings on Straight Talk. We thank you for your continued patronage, and look forward to seeing you on Straight Talk. Sincerely, Creditnet
Re: Post another header asking Chris, Reply to the Creditnet email asking them to forward the prserve users IP to abuse@prserve.net with a snippet of your email from them as evidence that they need the rest of the IP numbers to investigate the matter and they are willing to do something about it once they have the exact IP. If I get a similar response from them I will do the same. -Dave
Re: Post another header asking Thanks for the help guys. I have been in contact with the pbm and others for a period of time now concerning this, and can assure you that the pbm has already contacted the isp. However, I ask again, that should any further postings be made by someone using my name, please save it for me for further use should I miss it. Thanks
