Time to split the group?

Yes, you can start a newsgroup. *Anybody can start one in the alt heirarchy. * Or: http://groups.google.com/groups/create?hl=en&lnk=gcphp a few seconds and *poof* you got it. Good luck getting USENET providers to carry it, and good luck getting people to use it. *Unless they are carefully targetted, splinter groups generally get no traffic to speak of. Echoing Puck's point, he was thinking that some here may want to bandy about their beliefs with each other, and were only lacking a venue. Who would care then, if their was a larger audience for their views if they were genuinely, and only interested in discourse amongst themselves? No one would care about post counts, traffic, advertising, click ads or anything else. They could hammer on each other to their hearts delight. And it wouldn't cost them anything, and they could keep it amongst themselves. *My* point was there would be no larger stage for their considered opinions, the showboating of their perceived smack downs, and one oneupmanship they try to practice. My point is that for these guys it is better to be a small fish in a mud puddle than to be big fish in the ocean. Robert |
