Moderation in usenet groups

I'm pretty new to this very old system....
Is there any moderation in usenet groups, like sci.chem?
I saw some spamming "threads" (i don't know if you call em like that)
like "ChinesePingyao518" that only move down other important ones. If
there's any moderation those messages can be destroyed...but well, i
don't know...

(Important: i'm not accusing any moderator if anyone exist)
