Not to worry. Beta is going fine and I'll soon offer a "crap free"
option to those that want to read it. Of course, all others are free
to continue to post crap and swear they are trying to "clean up" the
newsgroup.

Gene,
I am curious when you open your server will you allow people access to
your server whose sole purpose of reading rec.boats is to observe and
comment about "rec.boats" being flushed down the toilet, then spend *90%
of their time talking about the Seven Little Schitts? *It seems that
that would be counterproductive to your reason for starting a "filtered
server".

Sure! The funny thing is.... they can post their patooties off and the
posts will propagate to all servers.... they will just be filtered
from *my* server. So..... if you are getting headers from my server,
their posts will not be available.

The ones that honestly want to end that sort of repartee will be the
ones that choose either to (1) ignore them or (2) download headers
from my server and, thus, not be *tempted*.

Well, it's time to quit a bad habit again, I hope... I am getting
ready for the "new wrecked.boats" you are officially "plonked". BTW,
your IQ means zip. A friend was the youngest ever full professor at
Johns Hopkins. and he admits he can't turn a screw or tie a shoe

Yeah, I kind of figured you'd not want to post your IQ, "serverman."


The last 4-5 exchanges are a good example of what will be filtered....
even if I have to kill a whole thread.



Ahhh. It should be interesting, then, because for the most part, the
"seven little schitts" will have many problems... love it.

He answered the question...it reads content, too, but he won't filter
out the golf-motorhome-grandchilren-guitars crap. Too bad. That would
cut down on the daily number of posts, and almost totally eliminate the
crap from the Seven Little Schitts.

Maybe, but not if they are civil.

I guess what I am asking is, what topics will be filtered?


Just the ones that people can't handle. Politics, for example. At this
point, I'm not really trying to determine acceptable subjects so much
as I am simple civility.

And does your server read the posts, or just the headers?


Both.



Thanks...so when someone like Reggie makes continuously snarky remarks, or
if some remarks are reported to you, will you be able to filter them or
him ...out?

Serious question. I'm interested in the recognition patterns. Reggie
usually tries to veil his snot.

Reggie is crap. If Gene filters him out every time he makes a snarky
remark, the world will owe him a debt of gratitude. I'm sure, though,
that I can refilter what Gene filters and keep Reggie where he is
now...in the permanent bozo bin, along with the rest of the Seven Little
Schitts.

I think he is working more on content than individuals. Hopefully it
will include "sig files" which are only there to inflame others too.

OK Dwarfs;)... and I am probably the shortest and fattest, let's see
what he has and play the game. This could be the breakthrough we have
all been waiting for.

I like it, everyone can post, they just have to be civil... If there
is anyone in particular you want to plonk, you can add that filter to
your reader locally.

No more name calling from me either.. well, except for us dwarfs..;)
