An Open Letter to Spam Patrol

An open letter to the Spam Patrol;

If I sound bitter, you bet your sit-apon, I’m bitter. You got me suspended. A mark on my behavior file.

You didn’t bother to email me. But then why would you, you were too lazy to report the real spammers who were right there on the page waiting for you to confront them.
