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.
