[Full-disclosure] Another one hit send today.

[Micheal Turner <wh1t3h4t3@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Another one hit send today, it's all over my inbox. "Idiots on Internet ranting 
nonsense", "Opinions like assholes, everyone has one"...
Damn FD'ers.  They're all alike.

[...]

I realized something today, in the last few months I have read FD twice, and 
each time I have left without enlightenment. The daily trollings of n3td3v and 
flame responses which we have all been guilty of have caused the list to 
degenerate completely in usefulness. The most interesting posts are often 
mirrored on other lists such as BugTraq and technical discussion is lately best 
held on the likes of DailyDave. 

I call upon Full-Disclosure to fix up, man up and resolve this problem for 
good. Ignore n3td3v. Do not reply to his postings. Ignore his replies to your 
postings. Do not give comment or weight to any arguement or viewpoint that he 
may hold. This single act of solidarity by all users of FD could (in time) help 
repair the damage already caused by this single or group of individual(s).

n3td3v can be credited for achieving one thing in the field of computer 
security. Completely destroying one of the main outlets used by individuals who 
believe in full disclosure of issues pertaining to computer security. Perhaps 
this was a deliberate attack or just a mental patient with a day pass out to a 
cybercafe. 

The time for action is now. Let us have our Ides of March this year.
