Well I tried to take him out of my twit filter and have a reasonable

So he's gone back into my twit filter, forever !!


It's very sad that one malicious individual can cause so much
disruption to what used to be such a great newsgroup.

Yads' posts aren't the problem, it's the replies to them so unless you also
killfile everyone who replies to them you're wasting your time.

My suggestion for years is that we all kill file YADS and no one replies
to his posts. That way he can't ruin the group. I'm sure he'll still
post a few hundred daft one liners every week, but does it matter if no
one looks at them ?

At least I know I won't be contributing to the noise level by replying
to him.


Have it your own way. And if the computer surges due to killfile
overload, I hope you get listed as an arsonist.
