Moderated Google Group?
Does anyone know of a moderated Google group covering bicycles?
I see that this Usenet group is still full of spam and other garbage, and because of that I've fallen off reading it very often. Dave |

Eternal September does a pretty good job of keeping spam out of this group. Of course, I have to filter the nutcases myself, but they identify themselves very quickly and then I can forget they exist. -- Joy Beeson joy beeson at comcast dot net |

Dave It's easy to filter out the spam and other garbage using filters in Thunderbird or other news-readers. Remember to use both e-mail address filters and subject filters. There are often threads attacking a specific person where you may not want to filter out everyone responding to the thread. Here's the filter list I have at this point in time, just add these filters and the group cleans up nicely: e-mail address filters ----------------------- Subject Filters --------------- Dolan Krygowski's Krygowski Tom Sherman |

Dave I sure hope you find what you are looking for because I can see that you would bore us out of our freaking skulls. ALL moderated groups, without any exceptions, are for dullards and numbskulls. I personally would not be caught dead on one. Imagine anyone having the effrontery to pass judgment on a post of mine! What an outrage that would be.

It is never necessary to filter anyone. The best thing he could do is to filter himself right out of these groups. After all, he just wants to talk to himself. There are already enough assholes here without him. Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

Gee, it certainly is too bad that you are so easily offended. Perhaps
after you have removed your pink tu-tu and your ballet slippers, you will give some thought to the question of why you feel so threatened when you read anything you don't approve of. You could also talk to a shrink about it. Just don't wear the tu-tu and ballet slippers when you go see the shrink, OK? |
