I think I've gotten one message like that, a long while ago... personally I didn't validate it with any sort of reply - pretty much the same treatment I give to spam that gets through my filters (although I tend to take that spam and use it to strengthen my filters).

But khakis' - forgive me for asking... I seem to remember a post from you a long time ago, arguing that "n00bs should be coddled and "given a chance" rather than flamed in to cinders for asking such stupid questions" (paraphrasing heavily, but I hope it strikes a memory); if I'm mis-remembering, my apologies... you joined right around the time of a few other "noteables," such as komo (or wtf ever his handle(s) were). My basic point is that posting "oh, let's give the kiddies a chance" has the effect of causing a certain percentage of the kiddies within our 90k plus ranks to think it might be worthwhile to PM you asking for "help..." at least that's what I would guess, anyway.
