Considering what we DO get, in the Illuminati, any petty prizes like these can't be worth our while.

I killed the spammers and banned the whole IP range.

The Illuminati are nothing if not bloodthirsty.

Thank you Your Highness.

If you would deign to share your wisdom with the lower sorts, how does one determine an IP address to drive a stake through its heart?

I tried to do so (to no avail) before notifying you.

Again, thanks for all your good work.

I've contacted the powers that be to suggest they double your salary.

The Qualtloos IP ban seems to comprehensively cover most free-WiFi in UK pubs and railways. I think they are onto something! :D
