To be rid of the spammers and sex stuff?

If enough are interested I could try to find a format somewhere. I
miss what this group was

the new home wouldnt allow spammers


It would be nice if there were a way to eliminate the spam, and
discourage flaming. I for one would be interested. Nice of you to
volunteer. I read the postings via deja news, which does not allow for
filtering as far as I know. As many others have said, you just skip
the spam, but still it would be better if it weren't there.

I regularly read one moderated group, and that is one way to go, you
can eliminate spam and flamers. A good moderator can do so without
being unduly restrictive. And look, it's a free market -- if you
don't like the moderated group, then you don't have to visit or join
it. However, the degree of traffic on this group would make
moderating a fairly big job, I think. -- H
