I'm already beginning to understand the value of kill files in this
group.

I've started adding ID's... no doubt there'll be more soon enough...
not least because of the multitude of morphs and fake addies they use.

Anyone wanting to make sure I'm 'me' can visit the 'Australian
Opinion' forum. We're a bit boring but there're no trolls there!

Yet... !!!

I automatically mark all webtv posts as read so it's easier to ignore them,
but they're not deleted. There are a couple dozen Subject-line keywords
which get auto-deleted. I thought I only auto-deleted a few posters, but I
just checked and I'm auto-deleting 40 of them. I guess it adds up over the
years!

And since I had the killfile open, based on the pleas of many, I'm now
auto-deleting *41* posters.

If your kill file really is years old, maybe it's time to prune or
just delete the entire thing and rebuild. I bet many (more than you
think) of your filters are out of date by now.

I mostly killfile subjects/threads rather than people.
There are a couple of exceptions. ;-)

You can also killfile subjects, or parts of subjects. You can also killfile
a nymshifting troll that constantly changes his email or other headers to
dodge killfiles, but always keeps the same handle. I did that to an
obnoxious guy in another group who DARED me to killfile him. He doesn't
have a clue, because I ain't about to advertise to him that I never see him
any more.

Xnews is wonderful.

Oh, come on Michael any good news reader ignores authors and subjects.
The fancier ones can ignore subthreads and entire domains.

I cleared mine when I upgraded Agent last year but it's rapidly
accumulating names... and nearly *all* of them are from here!!

RFC has been a kf goldmine in the last week or so. Everyone was
almost too well behaved before Thanksgiving weekend but now they're on
a downhill slide... probably to Christmas. It's not a good time for
newbies to visit.

Santa has a lump of coal for certain stockings. You know who you are
and you better be good!

men is deranging certain people.

These daze you can gasify that coal and so turn into a good energy
resource...
