How did this group get flooded with all the bizarre filth. I decided
to stop by when I saw strange cross-posting and for the life of me
can't see how you co-exist with the freaks that have made your site
home. My Mom would love the pond talk but would faint if exposed to
the trolls. Fascinating place.

Not so bad if you know how to filter the cross-posters. What always amazes
me is those who choose to respond to the cross-posters, cross post
themselves and have to repeat what those I've already killfiled said. If
they object to the filth, why do they insists on republicizing it. Dunno. So
I end up seeing it anyway. Sigh.

I use Forte Agent, which warns me when I am about to cross post. I
think a lot of people don't realize they're doing it, unfortunately.
Do you have theory for why they targeted rec.ponds in the first place?
