From another newsgroup... here is everything you never wanted to know
about MI-5 guy.....
Forwarded with thanks from aus.aviation
The MI5 poster: His name is Mike Corley, he is an IT professional but alas
he has mental health issues. Here are some details about Mike Corley. He
lives in London, UK. He first began his postings to usenet, BBS, and
forums
in 1995, unsurprisingly first to alt.conspiracy.
He has his own website: http://www.five.org.uk/
"There have been numerous newspaper articles and online thesis about
Mike's
postings, this is a BBC article on the subject:"
http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/alabaster/A164404
"And amongst many other covers of the Mike Corley phenomenon there has
been
a modern opera about this usenet legend:"
http://www.thecorleyconspiracy.com/
The problem is amplified by posters who reply to Mikes X-post floods
without
snipping, and without removing the crossposts. But also Mike Corley sets
"follow-up" groups to his MI5 posts, this is where he hasn't actually
posted
to a specific group but it's listed as "follow-up" in the crossposts, the
losers who reply, their posts show up in groups that Mike wants flooded.
Mike Corley has set uk.misc as follow-up to all his posts, (which I've
removed) it gets flooded with the replies, and of course the X-posting.
Mike
Corley has been doing this since 1995, and he knows what he is doing, he
avoids killfiles/plonk/block by morphing and using pay-as-you-go dial-up.
Filters rarely have an effect as in this example, if you set the
criteria as
"MI_5", then the flood morph to "MIfive" or whatever. He doesn't post via
google despite the headers, nor are the email addies valid, he dances
between proxy servers such as altopia etc, filtering has no effect. The
simple rule with Mike Corley floods is to ignore and not to reply. Mike
will
take his medication and eventually stop.....until the next time. But if
users do the foolish and reply/x-post/fail-to-snip, then Mike Corley
sticks
around. So don't spam your pointless replies across dozens of groups.
