Greetings Gentlemen,

I subscribed to this group in "hope" of finding a low spam group with mostly
on topic posters. LOL! After reading a few posts from the regulars and
spammers alike, you can't help but notice the desperate attempt to out mock,
curse, threaten, mame or kill each other. Here, it is no different than the
hundreds of other groups I no longer subscribe to. (for that very same
reason).
More time is wasted on regulars flaming spammers than on answering legit
posts and actually helping someone. Nothing is more annoying than reading
a post from someone that needs help and seeing one or two legit reply's and
then 30 threads from "regulars" bashing and flaming each other! Who are the
spammers now? Look, spammers will always be a big problem in any
moderated / un-moderated newsgroup. The best thing you can do is "IGNORE
THEM"! Report them if you wish, and lastly, filter them out in your browser
settings. Yes, the same goes for spammers as for not taking care of your
teeth.
"Ignore them" and they will "go away"!
Just trying to help (yet another) good newsgroup, going astray.

Randy

PS: I realize my post is off topic. Please go easy on me.... (or, ignore
it).
See how easy that was?


You don't know the meaning of "spam". Do you?
