Actually they have tried many times even before I became DD. I know other non-DD maintainers who have been bothered by them too. I don't see a general solution for this, since some may like it. In my case I've told all recruiters that I'd never ever work for Google, and that I was a bad coder and a messy as sysadmin, which is pretty true. So they stopped for real. Regards,
