This is not miss manners bitching.  I quoted the whole post as a point.
This is common sense.  We all need to pay attention to things like this and
raise the bar.

Of course it's not right. It just is.

Exactly, treat it like any other innappropriate behaviour. It happens. If
it's illegal, report it. Otherwise, filter it and move on. There is no
license required to run these servers. Any kiddie can do it from his home
cable connection. And he can use it to cause all sorts of trouble. There's
nothing we can do about it other than filter the mess.

If he lives in the USA, he was born with the right to randomly piss
people off for no good reason.  It says so in our Constitution and its
practically a corner stone of American life.  How would we support a
country with this man lawyers if that was not the case?  That being
said, He is the right to do with his property what he wants as long as
he is not breaking any laws.  Its that simple. You can piss and moan
about it but your best off ignoring it and moving on.

This may be the 'real world', but that doesn't make it right. In essence,
this admin/operator has instituted a policy that has adverse affects on the
server community at large. What the hell gives HIM the right? IMO, that's
just plain rude. Now, I may sound like Miss Manners bitching up a storm, but
that's inconsiderate.

This also sounds like the workings of some 15 yr old jr. admin. Is this
really the head admin/operator? If one of my admins acted like this, he'd be
out on his ass in a New York minute. My server is my responsibility with my
money invested and my reputation on the line. I wouldn't want some attitude
junky causing trouble. Try contacting the 'real' operator.

You're right Brian, we shouldn't have to deal with this. It should be common
courtesy to prevent such issues. Otherwise, I'll just have to add another
tag filter to AM/CM to include *.com, *.net, *.org, etc. which makes them as
big a nuisance as hacker clans.
