There are a number of good free text group newsservers, such as Eternal

only costs 10GBP a year (news.individual.net). So I hope we don't have
to lose you.


Thankyou. I will look into it. Two caveats though... The one free one I
looked at so far isn't free if I want to post. The other is that the truly
free ones may be a haunt of trolls, Eternal September is a namd I have read
in contexts of posters naming some systems with a bad hit-rate for troll
sources.

What difference does it make if trolls use the same ISP for newsgroups
that you do? You use the same roads as every bank robber, no?

I think he was suggesting killfiling on all posts from Eternal
Sepetember users . Otherwise that's correct, what you see on the
newsgroups is independent to whom you subscribe.
