Every month or so, using a fictitious name, this troll floods 5000 newsgroups (all cross-posted to a single low-traffic but unrelated newsgroup) with superficially relevant comments. The purpose is to disrupt with off-topic crosspostings. Like all trolls, he means to annoy and disrupt. The tracking newsgroup is the way he "keeps score" of how much damage he has caused. Don't put yourself on display in his trophy case. If you feel you have to respond to one of his posts, please don't crosspost to his tracking newsgroup. In this case it is israel.amix. Like all trolls, the way to handle him is to IGNORE him. Take a few minutes of your time and check out the following score cards to see firsthand what this perverted troll is doing. I promise, you'll be amazed at just how active and perverted he is. You will see firsthand the troll's work and his trophies. You will see into the sickness and darkness of the worst troll on the internet today. Read some of his posts and look at the headers. You will see than no newsgroup is immune. You will see flamewars started, some containing over a hundred messages. Browse the can.uucp newsgroup, his old score card, for Karl-Hugo Weesberg Browse the is.matur newsgroup, his old score card, for Dan Simper. Browse the scot.tld newsgroup, his old score card, for Bruno Beam. Browse the israel.amix newsgroup, his current score card, for Paul Eisner. He is known as the "anagram troll" because his fictitious names are often discovered to be anagrams (for example "Dan Simper" is an anagram of "Spiderman", Bruno Beam is an anagram of "Unabomber"). This guy is a serious troll with a serious problem. Don't be one of his trophies. Chances are that I don't subscribe to this newsgroup. I am simply monitoring the newsgroups the Anagram Troll is using as his score card. Any posts from me are a result of that monitoring. I normally only post to the newsgroup being spammed, not to the score card newsgroup, thus I will not see any replies directly to this post. Above all, please do not allow him to start a flamewar or extensive discussion in your newsgroup. He thrives on that. If it is too late, don't crosspost to his score card newsgroup. That trophy count is his motivation to continue trolling. Please help stop him in his tracks.
