If it was occasional, it wouldn't be so much of an issue.

I blame the psychos and not JF.  Whatever he does is outside of the newsgroup,
so it's their fault that the crap shows up here. It's basically just a
different form of spam.  Fortunately, it is fairly easy to filter.  

Unlike Island, JF has no control of inappropriate shit being posted to the
newsgroup.
