OT: Still Blocking Google Groups users?

[Michael Kennedy]

I used to be on this group a lot a few years back back when I had a usenet server included with my ISP.

I was wondering if everyone still blocks all google group users in their kill file.

Can anyone read my message?

I don't see why. In her, SEB and SED there is not much spam. In fact what spam there is comes fom someone obviously sells textbooks. those "Solutions Manuals". They are not from Google groupers.

Perhaps Google groupers are in other groups that do gt alot of spam, but these are not al that bad.

And, I only read _replies_ to gg postings. I killfile the OP.
The replies are often of interest or contain enough humor to make
it worthwhile.

But, as well, I see the idiots replying to pure gg spam -- as if
the spammers _EVER_ read followups to their spew.

You're right of course, but it's a bit cathartic I suppose to rant a bit at them, poke fun at their postings or products etc.

Yeah, getting your posts just fine.

But it also means that even if somebody blocks the spam, they still can
see your replies, containing the spam.

So please don't resend spam.
