I have one at http://www.sushifaq.com/wasabi but after a major DB crash
I lost all old posts (and learned a valuable lesson about trusting ISPs
to backup my databases). It's back up, lightly moderated, but not very busy.

You must be looking at this thing via something other than Google,
Dan. I guess your newsreader filters out all the copious spam. I
don't know much about newsreaders and i'm not interested enough to
delve into the subject, but from where i'm looking at this place -
groups.google.com - it's quite thoroughly trashed, with regularity
lately.

Weird.. We have our own News server here, they must be filtering the
crap from it. My reader doesn't filter.

There are a few random spam messages that pop up but those are
ignored. If you want to learn about the art of sushi then I can send
you to excellent websites that will get you started. If you have a
question though then you want to be here. The reg's here are smart and
will answer any question if you can't find something. I've made sushi
at home for 12 years and I thank everyone on here for the questions
I've had answered. And I say...

"Sushi progresses every day...Just having though it is enough!"

Happy Rolling,

G

sometime in the recent past posted this:

I just use the news server that my ISP provides - the key might be that you
use Google groups. I cannot control what news my server downloads for me, I
can only mark it read or not read, but have no filters on this group.

The ISP clears it's cache often enough, so old posts come up as 'Expired -
click to remove Expired' and I do, so then my browser only hold the active
ones. The oldest post I've got goes back to 2-19-08 and from then until now,
I have only one Spam on 4-21-08 subject: Mules Shoes.

I use Google as little as I can - ever since they revealed that they keep
dossiers on everybody who uses them and what they search, ostensibly for
marketing purposes, hmmmn? so they can sell it to spammers - maybe that's
your problem?

Not here, using my newsreader (Agent).

As far as I'm concerned, Googlegroups is the best way to search
newsgroup postings, but for actively participating--reading and
answering current messages--it's among the worst possible ways to do
it. In fact, if that were the only available choice, I'd probably give
up on newsgroups.

One of the many reasons that a newsreader is much better than web
access like googlegroups is that a newsreader lets you build filters
to ignore spammers, trolls, and other similar polluters of the
newsgroups.

Use a real news swerver rather than Gargle and you'll be better off.

Gargle spams Usenet consistently, to the point where a UDP has been
proposed, and there are already many sites that don't accept any
postings from GoogleGroups.

Firefox + Greasemonkey helps me out in killfiling the spam on Google
Groups. After uploading Greasemonkey, go to http://www.penney.org/googlegroupsplus.user.js
to activate the killfile.

I did all that, Cygnia, but all the spam is still there. Now what?

Have you been clicking the "x" next to the spambots' addresses and
hitting refresh afterwards?

I don;t see an X. There is a star I can click on and highlight. I did
that and hit refresh - and nothing happened.

Hey WW,

I also use "Agent" newsreader and have for years. It's not a very
expensive piece of software and is very easy to configure.

I believe I spent about $30 for it.

I only see spam one time. The filtering in it is great.

Google is an ok generic newsreader, but it is generic and free. Like
most things in life that are free, it isn't very good.

Good luck to you man. If you do buy "Agent", I'd be glad to help you
learn and use it.
