You know - who is spamming who here?

I don't see the orignal, but for some reason I see yours.

~~ snerk ~~

hee hee.....
there was an orignal post from a cnsneakers whatever.
We're getting overrun by this spam now.

I'd dump the chinese sneaker spam guy into the bozo filter bin with
Loogy and the rest of the assholes, but I don't want to provoke an
international event: the sneaker guy would complain.- Hide quoted

I am truly sorry that I do not visit newsgroups in exactly the same
way all you guys do. Uh, no I'm not.. Anyway, if you all just let me
mark them and leave it alone, you will find your own experience much
better, as I will mine. And please don't tell me how to read the
groups, I have my reasons. So for now, if you accept the fact that
once in a while you may see a dot, and I have a better experience all
around, we will all be much better off... Thank you for your
understanding.

Your dots make things worse for the majority of us. I have Tim
killfiled because he keeps perpetuating the stupidity. That means I
don't see his other posts, either, so I end up losing a little there
as well. The annoyance of his dot spamming overrides anything useful
he might post, so he's in the penalty box. I really would rather
continue to see your other posts which are often entertaining to say
the least. If you follow Tim, I'll probaly ditch you at some point
soon, as well. I'll bet I'm not the only one who feels this way.- Hide

Please explain how three or 4 dots a day, can be more trouble for you
than me having to scroll down pages of 50 word subject lines in my
viewer. Then explain to me why you just don't bite the bullet and
filter anything with the words "spam" in the subject line. Am I
missing something here?

=================

Scott, I have to agree with salty. Folks can tell it is spam just by
reading the title of the thread. I believe you and Tim have actually made
things worse by replying to the spam messages. It was never this bad
before you started doing so.

Why not just ignore it?

Well Jim, evidently what Scott and I are doing is a public service
backfired. When you use Goober Gruups, you get to see titles like
this:

"Mexicans are angry that the United States might protect its own
borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and stay
indefinitely. Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind
these Mexicans. Let's say I break into your house. Let's say that when
you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave. But I say,
"I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and
swept the floors. I've done all the things you don't like to do.
I'm...."

And that's a minor one.

It's like walking though an old house and always having to dodge the
cobwebs hanging from the ceiling.

I'm in the process of getting a REAL news reader, and I'll quit
marking SPAM so it doesn't interfer and inconvenience any one else.
Of course the REAL newsreader might not be up to par with Soggy Dogz,
so he may as well leave me in the bin. I don't mind.
