  kuro5hin.org || Anti-Spam or pro DDOS?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Somethingawful says that SPEWS shouldn't be fllisting such large ranges simply to ensure that no spam gets through.
The spamming was carried out by somethingawful forum members incensed by what they saw as the unfair blocking of the site's email.
Somethingawful happens to be a customer of a fairly well-known spamhaus, which is why they got caught in the fllist.

And as somebody else said about that Batman comic at I-Mockery: "The funny, good thing about it is (based on the "quotes" from the comics) is that all the criticisms seem valid and taken from the comic.

Many websites that rely on being part of an advertising-backed "network" for their income are shutting down due to the fallout of the internet dot.com econmic downturn.
eFront Media is apparently out of cash, and Lowtax of SomethingAwful posted the following in his forums.
That depresses me, as SomethingAwful manages to be pretty funny over all.

 The W -- Ultimate Warrior versus SomethingAwful.Com
Thing is though, Warrior was never the most professional person on the planet, as is evidenced by his crappy website and holding out for more money right before a title defense on a pay-per-view.
I received an almost duplicate email myself for a column I wrote at www.thehonkytonkman.com from "Chris Lewis," where he basically made the same "legal" threats as was made to Lotax at Somethingawful.
However, unlike Lowtax, he didn't threaten to dispatch Warrior to smite me. However, I have been training myself in the art of ducking clotheslines as a precation.

 ST-v-SW.Net :: Prior Feedback - SomethingAwful.com
SomethingAwful thus went off on the entire Star Trek vs. Star Wars debate concept, with my new site getting top billing.
In fact, I had realized it, both because I was bemused by the whole thing, and because of the following example feedbacks from the event.
Naturally, some of the 53 Feedback responses which I received in the two days of the SomethingAwful link's visibility fit right in line with the general idea that the Vs. Debate (and its methodology) is a crazy notion:
