I was checking my ISP's spam filter a few minutes ago when I discovered that XM98 had had the temerity to email me to sign some kind of campaign at a petition site to get himself unbanned on TV Tropes... by asking Google to intervene. Better yet, the number of signatures he thought would be enough to convince Google to act on his behalf is... 100.
I can't decide if he's absolutely clueless about how many signatures would really be needed, or he's being perfectly realistic and is aware there's no way he can find more than a hundred people even likely to sign on as a joke.
Just to top it off, the email was this disingenuous "I just signed this petition, won't you sign it too?" kind of thing, as if he didn't expect me to notice it was him. And he sent it to my ATT admin address. What a maroon.
So the attention whore who will remain formally nameless is attempting to run water uphill in defiance of common sense.
I made it quite clear when said moron tried to annoy me their emails would be added to my spam filter and would be ignored. The fool hasn't sent me anything since.
