A real D.I.Y group again?Out of all the postings I have just downloaded, only around 100 of 545 postsare about real DIY subjects. The rest of the shi***** is about mail orderbrides, buying fake watches and political garbage about the Big NutjobsParty.Does anyone in here have a question or need help with a true DIY project?If so, let yourself be known to us who want to help.The rest of you blowhards need to start your own group about illegaladvertising and promotion of political hatred and sexual deviance to minors.THIS IS A dO iT yOURSE3LF HELP GROUP.

Where are you getting your news feed?I get a S/N of about 98% at the moment I guess. I might need to kill two or three threads a day - all that seems to get through are one or two fake watche type ads, and the occasional British nazi rant.

Would it be possible to have

Thank you Guys. I didn't know anything like quotefix existed. It make things much easier to read as well as send. It has now been placed in my software archive box in case future re-installations are required.

I am a much happier bunny now, cause I read the posts in one go, instead of having to hunt through where people have replied in between the previous text. :-)

Relax, on the usenet scale of rudeness it wasn't that bad, but enough to spoil my enjoyment of an interesting thread. When someone asks for assistance, however framed, saying they are idiotic is, to say the least, unhelpful.
