...see that figure in the distance??. That's me, walking away. You will just have to play nice on your own.

Hello

Its a shame this thread descended to the familiar realm of name-calling and abuse, as it contains plenty of useful information on a subject that will have major repercussions for all internet users in Australia.

However, the inevitable has happened and this thread is now closed.

For the information of certain people - no, Hutch is not above the law, as he freely admits himself he has had many run-ins with the Mods over the years, and has the scars to prove it. What keeps him on the forum is the fact that when the error of his ways is pointed out, he listens. He doesn't keep going at it like a mad terrier with a rat. THAT is what gets people banned.
If a poster is told to stop stirring trouble, then we just want them to listen and heed the warning. Don't calmly carry on ignoring the request. And don't persist with pushing the Mods to see how much they will take. THAT will also get you banned.

If you don't like a post or a thread, or if you know that a particular poster winds you up - don't read it. Stay away from it. No-one is forcing you to read anything, so use a bit of common sense.

Now move along the lot of you, nothing else happening here.
