     I've been zapping GGers for quite a while, but like you, I don't kill the whole thread for the same reasons you don't. Besides, there are times when I need a good laugh.

     The problem of being a 'googlegrouper' and getting filtered out^3 by those who use newsreaders and newsservers to read and post to usenet is another problem. That problem is caused by a combination of there being a lot of GGers who are newbie-ish and uninformed about a lot of things, including customary usenet netiquette, and some other GGers being spam and nonsense generators, and some other GGers being more experienced but abusing some anonymity potential of being a googlegrouper who accesses by proxy.

     GGers come in several flavors: 1. Completely clueless - think that Usenet groups are just other Google Groups. These are the ones who will yell for "the moderator." […] I have them blocked here and in 24hoursupport.helpdesk, but in the other groups I read, the group would be almost empty if I filtered them. Those groups, however, do have a lot of good GGers.

     Yes, and although we might wind up with a few ex-GGers, the actual number of people who were using it to post to ACF really wasn't that many.
