I'm glad they're showing they won't put up with spam, but 9 years.Holy crap!
There's alot of people out there who do a hell of a lot worse things and got off with a slap on the wrist basically. This throws the whole system out of whack. If you had a list for the seriousness of crimes I'm sure most would have spamming near the bottom. I know I would, but if it gets 9 years in prison what the hell do the crimes at the top of the list get?. I just think it throws the whole punishment system out of whack. It just doesn't fit the system that's in place.

"I'll be here... I'll be 'waiting'...here... I'll be waiting... for you ... so... If you come here... You'll find me. I promise..."
Damn, 9 years, that's harsh. Oh well, no one likes a spammer.
