   That is not how things work on this Hub system.   
      
   Instead, a much more logical, thoughtful and considerate approach is to judge   
   how the problem is impacting the network as a whole and directly communicate    
   with the Sysop before taking any action. The impact of a misconfigured system    
   posting in a silly low-traffic Linux echo is different than lets say, a system   
   making a mass-bombing run or engaging in illegal activity.
