Where's the SPAM Police?

I haven't been to this site in several years so I thought I'd check in
and see what's going on. I'm shocked at the amount of SPAM and
advertising that's being posted! It kinda ruins the whole point of
coming here if you have to wade through a bunch of crap.
Isn't there a moderator or something? Seems like there used to be.

No, there is no moderator. Actually there isn't all that much SPAM
here, so maybe you're just hitting it at a bad time.

There is no moderator and there has never been one in this group. The reason
you're seeing so much spam is that you're reading the NG from Google Groups,
which not only doesn't filter out spam but is also a major source of it.

If you want to avoid spam, get a real Usenet service provider.

For starters, this isn't a site; it's a newsgroup. Completely
different things. And if you think there's a lot of spam here now,
you should have been here a couple years ago.

Use a decent newsreader, and you won't have to read the spam and
trolls anyway.
