Flajim has a terrific idea:
"I get so upset by these spoofers, that I think I am going to make more
crossposts between rec.boats and numerous unrelated newsgroups, because
at least that is not detrimental to rec.boats. This group needs some
new blood, and that is always a good way to get some new posters who
enjoy boating as much as i do."
Sounds like a winner...25 to 50 new recruits from other groups ought to
be enough to drive home those coffin nails ID spoofers such as flajim
have been pounding here.
All agreed?
This is a strange group. Are you talking Amway-type recruits?

Whenever everyone ignores harry, he has a tantrum and crossposts to the
other hundred or so groups he frequents. Then the signal to noise ratio here
goes up exponentially. Personally, I have a filter that simply deletes any
post addressed to more than one group, so it doesn't bother me... until
others reply. I use a similar filter for harry...try it, it works nicely.
