Default NG is so quiet!


I used to post at least weekly in this newsgroup (more often during the
growing season) but I got feed up with all the "newbies" who seem to think
that this is a "anything goes" news group. I read this group for
gardening discussions, NOT all the off topic stuff that now seems to be
the daily normal. When I tried to get this group back to gardening (by
asking people not to post all the political or other stuff) I got bashed
for it so I (mostly) stopped posting. Life is too short to fight with all
the people who think that they have the right to discuss anything that
they want here. There are much better ways to spend my time. All the
"off topic" people can have this group. I've given up on it.

We need a new gardening forum. One where we actually talk about gardening. I
got sick and tired of the whining about Bush this and Bush that and people
murdering animals etc, that I finally kill-filed them. Now it's too quiet
here :-)
