I was reading , made

Experience shows that NIMBY groups don't work, and netcopping to say "now you have a group to post that in, go there" is frustrating to say the least. The only way to get a NIMBY to work is to have the people posting "offtopic" *want* to form their own group. If there is sufficient offtopic it could justify a split towards a new ontopic newsgroup. So if soc.man is invaded with offtopic chitchat the ontopic posters could unite, rationale and move towards soc.men.ontopic and if that's invaded they could go towards soc.men.ontopic.ontopic Who needs filters if the solution can be so simple. f-up set So, the creation of rec.aviation.piloting.on-topic is yet another possibility. Thanks. That's not an option. You need at least three ontopic newsgroups to make it work. So you need rec.aviation.piloting rec.aviation.piloting.on-topic rec.aviation.piloting.on-topic.on-topic and rec.aviation.piloting.on-topic.on-topic.on-topic To make room for the opposition you need to do the same, rec.aviation.piloting rec.aviation.piloting.off-topic rec.aviation.piloting.off-topic.off-topic rec.aviation.piloting.off-topic.off-topic.off-topic Or you could use a filter, a killfile, or ignore oftopic posters. Or leave Usenet and find a quiet webforum. f-up back. -- d:J0han; Certifiable me http://www.aacity.net Citroen Newsgroup They killed the Credo. Viva el Credo! |
