Does this group have any moderators?

Wed Nov 11, 2009 4:35 pm   

There are way too many posts that have nothing to do with legitimate
electronics-realted topics. I am requesting that the moderators please
remove those posts that do not concern the topic of the group, namely
electronics. I would also request that any and all non-group posts be
permanently banned from being on this group and other similar groups.
I thank you for your time in addressing this matter.

Sincerely, zephyr1dam2001

Well, since he failed to prefix the subject line with [OT], perhaps the
moderators should ban him.

Note to the OP: GoogleGroups are not Usenet; nor Usenet, GoogleGroups.
Virtually all Usenet groups are unmoderated; the few that are usually
have an explicit ".moderated" in the group name.

Un, don't use GoogleGroups! Easy solution, a proper Usenet supplier is
the way to go.

There comes a time, in everyone's life, when they need to cut the
apron strings. No longer do your meals appear magically at the
appointed time. No longer does your be get made while your gone. No
longer is your laundry permanently clean. No longer does the trash
disappear as if by magic. It's now like that with Usenet news. You
have to do your own house cleaning, according to your own tastes.
Nobody will do it for you, especially for free. However, if you find
the filtering exercise to be beyond your abilities or beneath your
station in life, your can always hire a personal moderator, who will
pre-filter your Usenet news into a form that is more to your liking.

Unfortunately, Google Groups will never suffice if you're expecting an
unpolluted Usenet experience. I suggest you use Forte Agent as a news
reader:

and subscribe to a Usenet news service that offers spam filtering. You
can also set up your own filter criteria to eliminate postings by
those you find disagreeable and on subjects you find distasteful. I'm
not going to recommend a particular Usenet news service. This is a
rather old list:
<http://www.exit109.com/~jeremy/news/providers/providers.html>
but should work as a start.

Indeed - GoogleGroups is a only one gateway to the Usenet, plus Google
has the Usenet archives.
