I see lots of post by the Gloria troll here and the same situation is
replicated across Usenet. I wondering, is it time to consign Usenet to history? |

The troll known as 'Pete' has been posting under at least eight different names in the last fortnight, often replying to himself. If he follows his usual pattern he'll go quiet for a month or two soon. It is certainly not time to abandon usenet - there is no suitable alternative. For commercial reasons relating to advertising revenue a number of providers would prefer that everyone went to www fora and for this reason they have cynically chosen to allow usenet standards to slide. This is an excellent reason for posters to abandon www fora, put the traffic on usenet and complain to providers about the sloppy standards of their newsadmins.
