Twice in the last couple of days I've received reply-all emails in my catcher from someone who has decided to insult the lad and include the other 300 or so people in the "fun." It kept going after I sent a polite(ish) email to the person, so I sent a not-so-polite email. I googled the email address and found it pasted on guestbooks all over the place, usually with idiotic or rude messages. I hope that this isn't anyone here, but new members should keep in mind that when you're seeding guestbooks with your catcher account leave polite messages, not ones making fun of the site or being rude. The lad isn't reading the messages, he's just using a program to take addresses. Certainly don't leave rude jokes on the guestbook of a memorial site for a cancer victim. [/annoyed rant]

I think I know what you are talking about Gimli, so if the person in question is reading this, let me tell you: you are not witty or even slightly amusing. Drop it.

I think I know who, too. Let me know if I can help.

^^Thanks. I'm not really looking for help or to do anything, I just thought it might be a good idea to remind newer members about how to properly seed guestbooks (finding that they had put a bad joke on a cancer victim memorial site was what really annoyed me) and about the importance of not spamming hundreds of ITPs with insults.

If someone can be kind enough to PM me the details, I will be glad to look into it to ensure it is not someone from here
