Re: About off-topic and revolution

4) Consider a uk.games.video.sega to replace uk.games.video.dreamcast as well.
Perhaps, but would this actually lead to anymore discussion in the group as a result? I'm just thinking it may be more trouble that it's worth.

I think so too, but otherwise you'd be left with ugvd being a bit of an oddball. Which it is anyway. ugv.sega wouldn't really be a place to talk about Sega games on other consoles; it would be a place to talk about Sega's hardware and games on that hardware.

having a ugv.sega sort of implies we should have a ugv.atari, ugv.intellivision, ugv.coleco etc... Sega is now a defunct console manufacturer, like Atari. My thoughts are that current hardware manufacturers should have groups for their consoles, but past ones like Sega shouldn't.

Therefore, my preferred course of action would be just to remove ugv.dreamcast (RIP :'( ) and have all sega discussion in .misc with all the other past consoles; .dreamcast gets very little traffic now, .misc could easily cope with it.
