Photo Forum / Film Photography / 35 mm / August 2008A Thread about Charters, Killfiles, and Browsers
Here's a place where you dweebs can share in your geekiness. Perhaps you will now stop polluting the actual photography-related threads with your crap. For the record, I use Google Groups and formerly used AOL. That should get the ball rolling.... > Here's a place where you dweebs can share in your geekiness. > Perhaps you will now stop polluting the actual photography-related > threads with your crap. > > For the record, I use Google Groups and formerly used AOL. > That should get the ball rolling.... Actually it might be helpful for people to share the subject words and e-mail addresses they use in their filters. I've been able to keep the groups I regularly read pretty clean, and it doesn't require much effort once you get the initial filters in place. There's the usual obscenity filters, and the filters for sneakers, watches, etc. Sometimes it's not enough just to kill file someone's e-mail address, but you need their name in the subject words as well, because there will be a bunch of posters thinking that they're doing someone a favor by attacking the problem poster by name. Even during the days of when rec.photo.digital was under attack I was getting very little of the spam.

I hear a lot about spam in the groups but by using a news server who has clear intentions about the hated spam... I never see any. The only trade off (no loss really) is they don't carry region specific groups like aus.photo. I have to use some "dual" server posting often used by spammers or a second and third news server (thus different user-names) if I want to post into the lion's den. >>> Here's a place where you dweebs can share in your geekiness. >>> Perhaps you will now stop polluting the actual photography-related [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] > by spammers or a second and third news server (thus different user-names) > if I want to post into the lion's den.

Can I discuss lame metric paper size standards here? :-) >> Here's a place where you dweebs can share in your geekiness. >> Perhaps you will now stop polluting the actual photography-related [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > :-) You mean there are other paper sizes? |
