The Bananasplit News service now restricts crossposting to the newsgroup
'news.groups' to a maximum of 3 groups.  Messages that exceed this will
be dropped from the service and not propagated by it.

This ensures my service plays no part in the propagation of off-topic
D.J.Min rants to a group concerned with the functionality of Usenet.  If
anyone feels this is an improper action, I'm open to hearing about it.

Hopefully the regular apa-s readership through this news service won't
consider the dropping of these messages to be too great a loss.

Thank you. I deplore his crossposting.

Whilst I'm inclined to agree with you, I've always operated a policy of
never filtering an individual, no matter what his peculiar views might
be.  This filter is intended to prevent abuse of 'news.groups', not to
prevent the Reverend Raving Lunatic Min from posting.  If he wants to
clean up his act, then my service will not prevent him from having his
say.

Happy New Year to everyone!

While I too wish he could be filtered, I must agree that filtering an
individual would be the first step in the downfall of the remailer system.
Thus filtering an individual is not accepable as you describe.

I fully support the limiting of crossposting. Three is the maximum number
of cross posts that I could ever imagine using.

My regards to you and a Happy New Year
