It used to be possible to surf in here, press the View New Posts button, and get high quality discussion about web hosting.

Now with so much USENET garbage mixed in, that ability is gone.

Please don't mix the great with the masses here. If I wanted to be flooded with USENET garbage, I'd simply go over there and read it.

I know, mine is probably the minority opinion as usual, but I don't have the patience to weed through all this crap for the quality posts that WHT gets from its members.

Thanks,

I must agree.

Please take out the usenet feeds. If you want the discussions on usenet, use your news reader. WHT is wonderfult the way it was. Leve usenet posts out. It makes for unnecessary clutter.

I agree. There are enough posts in this forum already to keep track of. No reason to flood this place with more posts that can be way off topic.

I'm all for removing the Usenet groups from this Forum. It does not add anything of value to the forum and makes it more difficult to sift through the hundreds of conversations that go on here daily.

So that's what it is. Usenet. I've been away for a while and the posts have really piled up. I say drop the usenet.
