Just looked at news.announce.newgroups and there is no post about a
proposed split.



Just looked at rec.food.recipes - again no post about a proposed split!


If you feel the need to do something to reduce the noise and inappropriate
posts, get Google to clean up their house and actually do something about
the usenet abuse and usenet spam that originatte from their googlegroups
servers.


All in all, a really nice troll and you get an A for effort, but an F for
followthrough.

Posting from groups.google.com or www.foodbanter.com or other web-forums
dramatically reduces the chance of your post being read.
Use the real usenet!

Who the hell are you, little Hitler?!!

You're just trolling for comments?

For your information rfc has been a noisy place for years not weeks.

To split it into unmoderated newsgroups is ludicrous. Everybody can post
to them all, solving nothing.

And since you don't have a valid email address. you're just talking out
of your ass.

Troll.

I can always tell who is using Windows Live because it doesn't put in
attribution markers and there is no add on that will. Quote Fix has
apparently been abandoned by its developer. Go with Forte.


You mean the Brit trolls that were following certain Brit posters from
group to group?

Ditto

My server has 25 rec.food.xxx groups, including rec.food-cooking with
15 posts - 4 of them were out and out spam and the newest post of any
type appeared last November.

I got a better idea for you. Leave it the way it is and use filters.
There are a number of regulars who seem to enjoy the current format and
others coming and going.

Well, let me make a pitch now for you *not* using Microsoft Windows Live
Mail. As you can see above, it did not quote what nb posted correctly.
Your post and his appear to be at the same level. With Microsoft
Outlook Express, there was a fix to this. I don't know if there is for
Microsoft Windows Live Mail. I believe that Forte Agent quotes
correctly.

Thanks for the input. That's what I need.

I thought OT posts had diminished quite a bit until I remembered
the number of posters that have gone into my kf/filter recently.
IMO that's a much better solution.

Is it a moderated group?


I *know* that one is moderated. And the moderator is not posting
*anything*.


Fix the deficits, too, will you?

And stop all the wars?


I don't know how these things work, but it's a request for discussion.

I've been reading/posting here for almost 20 years, off and on. I've
looked in on rfr on occasion. As far as I am concerned, for needs that
I have seen, it has never been functional, especially once the world
wide web got up to speed. I can find vast quantities of lousy, untested
recipes on the web, and they are much easier to search for.

Actually, STUP, you didn't indicate to whom you replied... and
whenever anyone posts here they are posting to the entire planet and
any ETs who happen to be in the hood, STUP! May I suggest, STUP, if
you need to whisper sweet nothings in the dwarf's ear that you take it
to email, STUP!

Actually my post was only to firm up what everyone already knows, that Sqwertz
doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. As for my post back to Jean, it
was only to comment on her headers being removed from the thread, and I thought
it was squirts that I was replying to is all.
