So this is a hosting company that has had (assuming everyone else is having 
the same experience as I am, namely one ticket per posting) almost 500 junk 
tickets added to their support queue in the last ten days (476 messages on 
the freebsd-questions archive for June when I checked a moment ago), and 
either can't think of a way to address the issue, or doesn't actually care 
enough to do anything about it, all the while presumably having real support 
requests swamped in the noise?

I'd be jumping up and down looking for a solution by now (in fact I would have 
been weeks ago - can anyone remember how long this has been happening?).
