Hi Kristi,

It can be a bit confusing sometimes.. esp. when some usenet n/g's
actually accept ads if you put AD in the subject line and also off
topic posts if you put OT in the subject line. I'm learning to look
before I leap!


just curious, what non commercial groups do you read that actually don't
mind ads? I subscribe to alt. montainbike, alt.sewing, rec.backcountry,
rcts, periodically lurk at a few of the scuba and travel groups, read a few
others sports and outdoors ones on occasion, reference the Microsoft group
on an as-needed basis, and I tell ya NONE of them like ads. Some get a
little infested with ads once in a while, which really annoys people but I'm
seriously curious as to what groups really don't mind..?

an inquiring mind wants to know.

rec.crafts.textiles.machine-knit doesn't mind ads.
Posting is low, machine knitting stuff is getting hard to
find. I guess it's sort of supply/demand.

rec.arts.mystery welcomes authors who post promoting their
books. Some regulars will post books for sale or for
free, too.
