Even more so. A client of mine had been a member of a newsgroup for months, but the instant he posted part of an article he had written with a URL to the rest of it, they were on him like sharks. Emailing me demanding his site be taken down, etc. I was able to go back through the group online and prove he'd been a member and it wasn't a one-time spam, which kept *my* provider from cutting me off (the sharks had also gone upstream of me).
"Zealots" isn't quite strong enough for those people.
