As in, my BBS? Are you getting multiple copies of this one as well?
I have no idea what might cause multiple copies to go out. I may need to look more closely at the QWK exchange with Vert - I presume this is how the messages came your way?

If you volunteer to send me a "private" message so I can reply, and we see if the problem repeats. I'll watch and capture the QWK exchange to see if there's anything obviously wrong.

Thanks for your patience.

The messages in question are QWK "netmails" and not echo posts. We were
only receiving one copy of the echo posts from Victoria, but multiple
copies of any netmails that she sends.

They were QWK netmail so that is likely.

I have sent you one.

Hi all,

as some may have noticed, I've got a somewhat noisy user on my BBS.
This is a person with certain personal challenges but is harmless.

I understand they can be a nuisance, so I have deactivated their
account for now, but I'd very much like to know what is considered appropriate for a sysop to do in such a case. I'd like to handle the situation delicately for all involved.

Thanks for your understanding and advice..

Didn't really notice anything other than questions and ideas. Didn't bother me and seemed harmless.... I'd probably let them be on my board.






... Gone crazy, be back later, please leave message.
