No. What I pointed out was that there are many great sites out there not called "Next Generation" who don't abuse the USENET in the fashion that NG does. Maybe NGO is a great website; maybe it isn't. But even if it is then that's no excuse for them to post about every single fucking little update on the USENET, is it? Let me set the record straight: I don't mind the ODD "come visit our site" post; once a week would be fine with me, or when there really is some earth shattering "EXCLUSIVE!!!!!" that the world must know about. What I do mind is when it becomes a daily chore to have to filter out the same shit over and over again. "Use a killfile" I hear you say. Well it so happens that some of us don't have newsreaders with killfiles or are not prepared to take the time to download one. Why -should- we just because some asshole keeps posting the same shit? In many ways, I would be happier if Mr Svensson and the other offenders simply did a proper spamming job, because then everyone would just ignore the shit he posts. -- Web-Slinger
