So far I've just been killing threads that had any kinds of alt. or
politics cross posing in them, There are simply too many loons starting too many new threads every day to keep up any more. They seem to think it's perfectly ok to cross post to non related groups and aren't going to quit any time soon. I thought I would try Free Agent and see what it's like, but the Free part seems to have disappeared. Agent 6 looks to be a "trial" run for 30 days only. What would be a good free reader that provides newsgroup filtering that works? Tbird 6.0 absolutely sucks. |

Agent is one of the few programs I didn't mind actually paying for. My
kill file is 400+ long by now, culls about 25-30% of RCM. I have them all set globally, and they cull a similar amount from non-related groups like SER.

For text groups only, I like 40tude dialog. http://dialog.datalist.org/ Dialog is an older windows app, with powerful filtering abilities compareed to most (more modern) news readers; including regex and custom scripting -- if you want to take things that far (expect a steep learning curve to employ regex, and custom scripts). Sadly it is no longer supported by the author, but it runs well on XP. Under 7 (64-bit) I see some quirkiness with the GUI, but I'm able to work around it with minimal effort. Support is mostly user to user, on news.software.readers. If you read/write German there is an active group de.comm.software.40tude-dialog. Hope it helps. Bill -- Email address is a Spam trap. |

FWIW, I'm having pretty good luck using thunderbird - you can make a custom entry into the filter for "newgroups", and then just discard the ones with the flame NGs and almost all the screaming nonsense goes away. |

I've been almost completely happy with Free Agent, then Agent, since version 0.96 over a decade ago. The only missing piece of tech I'd like is to be able to kill by person. If a troll's name was in the text of a message (or quoted by some idiot) I'd like to kill it before download. They still don't do text searches. DRAT!

And you can try before you buy. A lot of free software is worth what you pay for it. I use my copy of Agent to do both usenet and email. Kills the junk, sorts incoming into the proper folders.

It would go a lot like this story.... Do you know the secret handshake? Johnstown, PA (GlossyNews) - Local and state police scoured the hills outside rural Johnstown, Pennsylvania, after reports of three animal rights activists going missing after attempting to protest the wearing of leather at a large motorcycle gang rally this weekend. Two others, previously reported missing, were discovered by fast food workers "duct taped inside fast food restaurant dumpsters," according to police officials. "Something just went wrong, "said a still visibly shaken organizer of the protest. "Something just went horribly, horribly, wrong."The organizer said a group of concerned animal rights activist groups, "growing tired of throwing fake blood and shouting profanities at older women wearing leather or fur coats," decided to protest the annual motorcycle club event "in a hope to show them our outrage at their wanting to use leather in their clothing and motor bike seats." "In fact," said the organizer, "motorcycle gangs are one of the biggest abusers of wearing leather, and we decided it was high time that we let them know that we disagree with them using it. ergo, they should stop." According to witnesses, protesters arrived at the event in a vintage 1960's era Volkswagen van and began to pelt the gang members with balloons filled with red colored water, simulating blood, and shouting "you're murderers" to passersby. This, evidently, is when the brouhaha began. "They peed on me!!!" charged one activist. "They grabbed me, said I looked like I was French, started calling me 'La Trene', and duct taped me to a tree so they could pee on me all day!" Still others claimed they were forced to eat hamburgers and hot dogs under duress. Those who resisted were allegedly held down while several bikers "farted on their heads." Police officials declined comments on any leads or arrests due to the ongoing nature of the investigation; however, organizers for the motorcycle club rally expressed "surprise" at the allegations. "That's preposterous, "said one high-ranking member of the biker organizing committee. "We were having a party, and these people showed up and were very rude to us. They threw things at us, called us names, and tried to ruin the entire event. So, what did we do? We invited them to the party! What could be friendlier than that? You know, just because we are all members of motorcycle clubs does not mean we do not care about inclusiveness. Personally, I think it shows a lack of character for them to be saying such nasty things about us after we bent over backwards to make them feel welcome." When confronted with the allegations of force-feeding the activists meat, using them as ad hoc latrines, leaving them incapacitated in fast food restaurant dumpsters, and 'farting on their heads,' the organizer declined to comment in detail. "That's just our secret handshake," assured the organizer. |

It did take me a while to re-do all my filters from version 4, they seem to work slightly differently for cross posts. Very easy to get rid of "one hammer" (TMT) and budgie except when non filtered people reply to them in RCM. All crosspostings are banned, it reduces the rubbish by at least 100 posts per day. Alan |

Wouldn't a jack hammer with a flat 1' square plate at the end work better than a shredder? :) Interesting question! While I certain LIKE the idea..it may simply be too logisticly slow. Unless one has a large group of People with said jack hammers..and a good supply of waders. What people? You set them up in a row, like a rock crusher at a quarry. Make the whole thing slope about 15° down hill and put a huge, 'FREE POT!!! Get yours while supplies last!!!' sign over the top opening. They'll be shoving each other out of the way to get their 'fair share'. :) Like the guy jumping up and down on the manhole saying "15. 15, 15 15!" till someone walks up and asks "Fifteen what". "Well, that a look" reply's the man, opening up the manhole and helping the guy down. He then closes the manhole, and starts jumping up and down saying "Sixteen, I got Sixteen!" I heard it as 88, 88, 88. It sounds better too. |
