Very strange attitude indeed.  I wonder what the company you work for would
say if you walked in to the CEO or a supervisor and "declared" that to them.
I'm sure they would be all smiles and embrace your "love".

Come now...  All that was said is that if you really care (and I believe you
do), instead of working in the dark to scheme plots or intrude on anyone
simply make it known so we can give you the proper forum for you to do that
to _help_ us (yup, help as in we need that type of thing given proper usage
of attacks) to prevent future spam.

It was a bygone - again, I reiterate what was said.  If you want to continue
with this please do by first informing us of your actions so we can better
channel your attempts (so as not to distract actual working people from their
daily activities) - that's the more professional thing to do at a min.  Start
by subscribing to the 'admin' list.

BTW: If anyone said we are a secure site (and I don't believe anyone did)
     then they were/are wrong.  We are NOT a secure site and the occasional
     spam and attack will happen, but we are committed to fixing problems
     we encounter.

Salam.
