Cobra, we'd get calls for the actual groups.


Are you ****ing serious?

Ah, yes hello, I was wondering why I can get to Alt.binaries.****.a.five.year.old.in.the.ass anymore? It worked yesterday...


I'll admit that they ran on my server longer then they should have, but at the time I was chief, cook and bottle washer. I would take them down in batches and I got calls asking for everything from rec.gardening to closer ones. The closest they got was just asking for the alt.binaries in general. Sometimes they'd ask for A.b.p.e.female when I knew they probably wanted A.b.p.e.child.female 'cause the former was still available... I think my block list was over 100 by the time we moved everyone to an offsite server managed by our hosting company.

I also blocked bestiality stuff too. But I did leave A.b.e.Ducktape.hamster... Just too funny since it was an inside joke. People used to call and meekly ask if I could fix their problem. Sometimes I would say "Sure, but you're going to need a piece of cheese, a roll of duct tape and a hamster, do you have those things?" Sometimes you'd get someone who was too busy writing notes to realize what you said at first... So I left it just in case anybody really took me serious... I'd have them post it... smiley It was ****ing classic when it registered... I'll need what?!?!?!
