The alt heirarchy isnt moderated.
If you want rec.autos.******-jeep.moderated, then you should go to
news.groups and ask one of the big 8 cabal to make it for you.
Or get the software, make it yourself and find a friendly newsserver to
host the group.
Or...set up your own server with passwords and auth info.
Or, migrate to the web and create a yahoo type group.
The options are endless.

If if "your" group is only used by "adults", only has 100% on topic
posts and such many people dont see what they're looking for and "move
on".
I use search engines to find specific ansers to specific questions.
Newsgroups are fun but they're really hit & miss for solid info.

The simplest way to keep a group noise free is to have the discipline
to not x-post, not follow up trolls and use a filter.
Btw, I'm a troll and I know what works.
