French Pits site posts rant against Dave Noonan

Stephen Ferguson reported that the French Pits site had returned with a front-page rant against David Noonan and others who objected to its pirated tracks. Posters mocked the site owner and noted that the site was soon pulled again, with jokes based on Monty Python and French stereotypes.

Perhaps if people stopped posting links to it, like yours. It would not get the visitors it doesn't deserve.

At last - dead again. I am tired of seeing the messages sent by the greedy little twerps ignorant enough to accept his offer. All I did to get into his flame list was to send a polite note defending Dave Noonan's right to sell whatever he wants. Well, I won't send any more Frenchmen my opinions.....

Just been pulled again, it seems... ;-) emmerdeur = very annoying person (slang term). Why doesn't the French pits guy post here... we could take him apart. ;-) Jan. =--- Stephen Ferguson wrote... > <Snip>
http://perso.wanadoo.fr/thefrenchpits/index2.html The front page now has a rant against Dave Noonan etc. It basically "farts in the general direction" of those heathen Englishmen (the literal translation of "emmerdeur" evades my dusty recollection of the french language, but the cleansed version would be "really annoying person") who don't speak French. He then suggests that all his visitors mail-bomb several addresses (including Dave, it seems) and send a copy back to the webmaster of the site (the address is included in the one-step "click to be a jerk" e-mail button) telling the English to release the tracks!
