Flame Wars
Well, here's (semi) interesting.
Those of you - if there are any - who have been following the site sospendo situation will have noticed that for the moment, ALYCE has two blogsites. the old one,*** (name changed to protect the innocent), last night sent me a couple of e-mails asking why i had 'abandoned' them. Just one of the inevitable accidents of hi-tech. In my reply, I asked some direct questions about who they were and where they were. I like to know. especially as all their messages were posted in Portuguese. It's the global village. My ISP is run by a very small, efficient and nice bunch of Argentinians, Webjogger up in Tivoli, NY. I wondered if *** was a similar outfit.
the reply to my questions was a) *** suspended my blog (check - a blank page!) and sent me this lovely e-mail. remember, I had asked them if they were a bunch of colleagues, or part of a big corporation.
"The message you sent requires that you verify that you
are a real live human being and not a spam source."
A SPAM source, indeed!
Does this mean I am dealing with a bunch of touchy inter-techs?
Do they think I am anti-Brasilian racist? (when I am a soccer fan, and love the spirit of their country)
ORDEM e PROGRESO, eh?
we'll see. But it's sorta interesting to get shouted at in an ironic manner by a program.
I will keep yous informed (here, obviously) without wasting more of your time.
Lots of love
