hierarchies do you keep in your subs list due to the good reading they
make?

Ta.

Im sure there are none. The moment a NG becomes active and popular the
trolls move in and start spamming. Its an almost full time task to
keep up
with them and kill files them.
This NG, uk.d-i-y is rapidly going that way. Give it another year and
it will
be unreadable.

uk.legal is already at that stage

It's not rocket surgery to just ignore the posts you don't like or
killfile if wanted.

But too time consuming to sift 90 percent out and hard to see one line
in the crowd.
