Are you here with a solution? or are you part of the problem?

It was just in recent times that you made a totally unprovoked name-calling
attack on me in this newsgroup. That very post then ran on to demonstrate your
lack of knowledge as to what had already been talked about and to make a
worthless recommendation to the op. I can't imagine that your behavior is any
better in s.g.britain, which is not a group that I follow. The new group
should be setup to keep you out, not others out.

Physician heal thyself!

This Usenet (not Google!) group is not showing up on my ISP's news server.

Are you proposing a new Usenet group, or announcing that one has already
been created?

Very silent creation, if it was recently created... As a non-alt

group, isn't it supposed to go through this long hassled procedure with
a charter, review period, and a vote for creation?

That said, I just did an update of available groups on Netcom
(aka Earthlink) -- first time in a year or so -- and while
soc.religion.satanism is new, no new soc.genealogy.*... And the full
list, including old ones, doesn't have the .moderated listed.

This is not a "newsgroup".

Yahoo purchased a lot of mailing lists from a server called eGroup.
They were mailing lists, not newsgroups. Since that, a lot of
people thought a group is a mailing list.

Now, why do they call this a group ? Likely because mailing lists
means a lot of bad things: no anonymous reading (you must subscribe),
no anonymous posting (so, you will receive spams and virus),
controlled by one server (so, if that server decides to resell your
message or to put commercial links in them, you can't do nothing, and
if the server is closed, then usually all archives are lost).

But newsgroups are a very different concept. It is unfortunate that
google is calling its lists "groups" while at the same time it has
true newsgroups (unlike Yahoo and most other mailing lists servers).
