This group is out of control
When I subscribed to this group back in January, it was a good place
for information. As of late, it has turned into something else. I
know there are a lot of loyal subscribers who are willing to spend
their time handing out valuable knowledge to others that are in need
of assistance. Yet there are some who just seem intent on destroying
the group and driving readers away. To them, I say congratulations,
you have succeeded. To those that wish to stick with the group in the
hope that it comes back under control, I say best of luck. To
everyone else that has helped me out with their feedback in the past,
I say thank you. In the mean time, I'm looking for another group.

Yep, I've been around here for close to 10 years. I've never seen the NG
this bad. I'd drop in other NGs during that time and always wondered why
the members put up with so much posted crap while we didn't have to in
this group. Well, now we have to...or not. I unsubscribed a while back
for months. I dropped back in and everything seemed OK. Boy, was I wrong.
What a wasteland.

Sorry I can't help, I've no problems at all with the group and I'd be
happy to show you how I do it, but I see you're running Mozilla and
you'd have to get a newsreader that allows scoring as well as
killfiling in order to eliminate all the trolls and troll responses.
News readers that support scoring are Xnews (that's what I use), 40tude
Dialog, Pan (maybe, I know the old version does, not sure about the new
version) and SLRN. The last two are more popular with Linux although
there is a pretty good Windows port of the old Pan and a 32 bit windows
version of SLRN.
If you do think about changing newsreaders, scoring help is readily
available at news.software.readers along with any other help you might
need.

This is Usenet. It is just part of the free service you get. If you don't
like it find a moderated or otherwise restricted bulletin board. Honestly,
I am not even paying attention to most of Bill and his pals.
