We can't let this happen. They think it's a dead NG and use it for themselves. What should we do? Should I call the MEOW MEOW ARMY? (it's an Usenet thingy).

I'm not sure which is worse - the spammers or the meowers. Once they come in, it's hard to get rid of them. I vote NO ymenard <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:UOlc6.125776$[email hidden]...

Yeah, it's what I was talking about the other day. It sure is a frenzy over there. I'd think it would die down once everyone gets their fills. Lets all start posting tons and tons of large replay files and pushing their warez off. ;) (Just kidding. I, personally, would rather it die down quietly.)

I vote NO In all considerations, you have a point ;-) But in this case, there is nobody else to help us "regain" our newsgroup. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.ymenard.com/ -- People think it must be fun to be a genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.

I wasn't sure of what you were talking about in that thread you posted, it did not at that time click about the relation to absa. > I'd think it would die down once everyone gets their fills. Unfortunately from what I have read, they will continue for a long time. absa was pretty dead but always useful as an alternative source for file sharing. > Lets all start posting tons and tons of large replay files I'll probably post some replays that I'll rename exactly like the subjects they have at the moment. > I, personally, would rather it die down quietly.

Well, it's your own damn fault for abandoning it for Jacob's binaries in the first place. Now take your medicine! If you want to "re-claim" it, you could always threaten them with ISP termination for posting "warez" to a group that it shouldn't belong in in the first place. If that don't work, then post your replays (AND N4 CARS!). ymenard wrote:

Simply ignore them. The more you feed trolls the more they come looking for scraps under the table. MS ymenard <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:lcmc6.125884$[email hidden]... > >"Eric Cooper" <[email hidden]> wrote > > I'm not sure which is worse - the spammers or the meowers. Once theycome
