AWESOME, THAT JUDGE ROCKS

Abe16 · #3 04-08-2005, 07:15 PM

Millions of junk e-mail? Wow, hard to belive! But that judge rocked also.

Leto · #4 04-08-2005, 07:52 PM

Yeah, but that's a email spammer, not a forum spammer.

Still, it provides slight amusement.

LET HIM BURN!

The guys nuts. Only a pyscopath would do that.

9 years just for E-Mail spamming? Jeese.

mudling · #7 04-09-2005, 03:59 AM

i think 9 years is a little bit too much, but what is the point of spamming that much?

T-nex · #8 04-09-2005, 04:02 AM

Too much sparetime i guess... But 9 years is too much in my oppinion.

Voodoo Hand · #9 04-09-2005, 05:17 AM

Let`s see what nine years will get us ?

10,000,000 spams a day x 3285 ( number of days in 9 years) = 32,850,000,000

$ 750,000 x 108 = $81,000,000

Look`s like nine years will save some one a shit-load of spam and money.

i dont think 9 years is enough !

This ass hole should be drawn and quartered

Dino · #10 04-09-2005, 06:33 PM

I agree with Voodoo Hand, although I'm slightly puzzled why he's multiplying 750 thou dollars with 108...

But yea, spam costs people a lot of money, hurts businesses, and is a constant pest. So 9 years is definately reasonable.

Majic · #11 04-09-2005, 06:51 PM

The 9 years is fine. I'd maybe go with more, even, just to prove a point.

As for 108, that's the number of months in 9 years. So assuming an average of $750,000 per month, the 9 year total would be $81 million. Whether the rake in would be so consistent is beyond me; I'm not experienced in the spamming business. It could go up, it could go down, who knows.

It should be noted that this goon was not canned just for spamming.

i think wire fraud and theft were also in there somewhere.

He should go to hell. And die.

I think the sentence is perfectly reasonable. Too lenient, if anything.

Nepharski · #14 04-10-2005, 12:52 AM

I agree with everyone who thinks the judge is indeed awesome and the sentance is right.

Hobo · #15 04-10-2005, 04:28 AM

Awww, i was hoping it was Paramiteabe

or Alcar.

Anyway, i'm not bothered by spam, as i don't shoot out my email address to everyone.

Well that makes sense considering it says that most of the emails were for money scams and bogus products that were all connected with him.
