Actually, the unholy worm ban was that he accidentally got caught when I banned all mail.ru email addresses, nice about 90% of the use of that email domain is from spammers.

So ar, I know of one user who got caught in. He crossfire since he uses a university account. At least one of the ips from his school has been blacklisted.

If someone is unfairly caught within the system they have other avenues to question it. As Wyrm did. The spambots don't care and move on to their next hosts. The innocent aren't damned forever, merely inconvenienced for a bit.
