At this rate of discussing about if this is spam or not all the dolphins will die. And of course... this is a Gentoo Mailing List, please don't write thinks off-topic here. If you want to help the dolphins... go to GreenPeace! or complain to the Japanese Government! here you don't obtain nothing. And also... if Dolphins are in danger is because PEOPLE want to eat them.

Yes, but we love it. I would continue, but I'm going to the cheese shop in front of the Ministry of Silly Walks. Kidding apart... The aim of it all is that the massive response to the attempted spamming should in principle avoid recidive behaviour. It's all about estirpating the bad plants before they invade the field. Aggelos seems to have left the ml, so it's a good result on our side. The problem is that if you leave people like Aggelos undisturbed, the ML will become 90% off topic and 10% on topic posts in less than a month.

You do know that some people have to pay for how much data they use right? They may not in the US or in some countries but I know there used to be a guy on here that had to pay a monthly fee plus so much depending on how much data he got. So if he is still here, he is paying for spam, including this message I'm sorry to say. Me, I try not to go to a Windoze list and spam them with Linux questions. I don't do that out of respect for the other people on the list. They may not want to here about Linux anyway. Maybe what we need here is a moderator and a ban list. Spam the list, get banned. Do it enough, you get banned for good. That may solve the problem. It would just seem to me that it is easier for us to not let people spam the list than to have the above happen. I have once or twice asked a windoze question on here but I kept it as brief as I could. I was trying to get Samba to share with my soon to be ex's laptop. Some people unlike me use windoze too. Some here may even be really good at it. It's the same with top posting or using HTML. You may do it, but you may not get the replies you need either.

The post that I made was satire. Its porpoise was to inspire a laugh, a chuckle, at most a humorous response. Not a debate. Debates are for serious people. Look the fact is every day: * A dolphin is killed * A cow is killed * Someone litters * Someone is killed/tortured in some war-torn nation * A young child is sexually molested by someone close to them * Jesus kills a kitten The point is this is not the tree-huggin-peace-lovin-let-the-dolphins-live mailing list.

Aggelos The relevant part of http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html [...] This is a very risky thing to do, however, because the hackers' metric for what is exciting probably differs from yours. Posting from the International Space Station would qualify, for example, but posting on behalf of a feel-good charitable or political cause would almost certainly not. In fact, posting “Urgent: Help me save the fuzzy baby seals!” will reliably get you shunned or flamed even by hackers who think fuzzy baby seals are important.

Post it in the off topic section of the Gentoo forums I guess but posting these on a mailing list is pretty much spam. To the contrary, I think that the OP has a lot to do with Gentoo and Linux in general. You see every day, like the poor Japanese Dolphins, countless numbers of cows are murdered every day. I know. But at least I hope they are not tortured and killed the way these dolphins are. Plus, as you know, dolphins are not fish, but mammals just like cows and dogs are. And which one of the three is more clever and friend to man is another discussion (not for this list). And there is another difference: The killing of those dolphins. each year, in the numbers seen on the video, may be a threat to nature's ecological system. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
