Subject: [UK-NE] MESSAGE FROM LISTOWNER

Hi everyone,

I'm posting this to both list and for the benefit of those who are new and
who were not members when the following accrued.

A few weeks ago we had a problem with a sick idiot who posted a vulgar and
obscene message concerning little girls on our photo request page. This is
in the hands of the police who have stated they will catch the person
responsible and they will be prosecuted. Following this I had additional
software added to the web site in order to make it more secure for my
members. Please read the section on our web site (SITE SECURITY). Again last
night someone decided to try and be funny by placing another message on this
section. It was not as bad as the last one but it just shows how childish
some people can be. I will today be considering the future of the Photo
Request page, as I will not have my members put at risk of seeing idiots
posting stupid and sometime sick messages. (To the person who is reasonable
for this). I do have your IP number and the details of your Internet
Provider who I will be contacting today.

Please remember that our web site is monitored and everyone who visits our
site is logged in the access log along with his or her IP number, time &
date. As normal if anyone would like to contact me concerning this or any
other matter can do so personally and not over the list.access log so there
is no way you can get too the site with it being logged.

Best Wishes
Steve
