Is there not a moderator that can keep this forum from being hijacked?

I don't see anything unusual. This is one of the most behaved
and spam-free groups I read. At least that's how it appears on
my news servers...

ObGardenBugs: Is there a bumper crop of lightening bugs this
year? Mid-May to mid-June, sure, but the last week of August?

MI5 has been around for years and seems to eventually show up in every
newsgroup. Ignore him.

BTW, he also has a website. :-)

Learn to use killfiles.

Oh. You are using Google Groups.

Nevermind...

It seems my newsserver at home filters him automatically. It boggles
my mind that Google groups woulnd't do the same. Flooding newsgroups
is considered a no-no in usenet. :)

I don't see them on the AT&T/SBC/Prodigy servers.

You should see the hundreds of thousands of Nike/Rebook
Sneaker-spam that's been flooding all the other groups for weeks.
All from Google Groups.

I have most everything from Google killfiled according to
Message-ID. If it came from Google, it's trash. Google really
is the shits for letting that happen.

Rather than filtering GoogleGroups, I just set filters to kill anything
with "Nike" or "Sneaker(s)" in the subject headers. I've seen nary a one
since.

Oh, and "tiffany".

99% of google posts are complete trash. Just kill ti *all*. I'm
not chasing filters around every day.

I understand, but I hate to kill out any legit posters that have
newsfeed problems.

I've had to resort to google groups myself in the past, so probably have
a bit of empathy for it.
