Default How to get rid of all these advertisers

All these ads are getting irritating. Anybody know how we can prevent
these folks from spamming our discussion group?

1) Attack with ski poles?
2) Become a moderated group?
3) Each user sets filter in their own news reader?


If only we knew who to attack!

I've been forwarding them to the X-Complaints address for years.
Presumably others at this group or others similarly effected have been
doing the same, since RSN does remarkably well. Or maybe the
paucity of spam here is reflective of the state of x-c skiing in No.
America or the world... I'm not sure tho with google groups, at least
the past year (take a look at opera.beta for what good it's done).

Thanks, Gene. I'll do the same. If you feel that's been keeping it
down it's worth forwarding on to the complaints dept.
