Very good advice. I think I haven't been in the newsgroups much since
they were a wild-n-wooly, "no laws here" kind of place. It's great
that some are now moderated and policed -- I just missed that
happening.

Well, back then they were even more adamant about running spammer-types
out of town. It's these days when every Joe Schmoe and his
computer-illiterate brother can get on the internet that people don't
think and the newsgroups are actually overrun with spam.

The moderated newsgroups have always tended to be less active than the
unmoderated ones.

Rec.crafts.beads doesnt mind on topic ads as long as they say AD in the

I just read one of those "simplify your life" books and felt like a
lot of projects had piled up for which I no longer had any enthusiasm. I
decided to pare down in order to be able to focus on (read "get access
to") the ones I care about.

Kristi,
Try running your ads on these two sites:
www.rummageads.com
or:
Quilting Trader's Network, simply email your ads, no fancy fonts or
fancy formats, to:

They will send reminders when it's time to re-post your ads.
I'm culling out quilting books, needlework bks., a few older sewing
books, some kimono and obi. and have had very good results posting them
at QTN. Just started posting with rummageads, so can't give feedback
yet. HTH.

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.

Hi Penny,

Rec. craft. beads specifically...

Must check out the scuba ones you mention and the mountain bike groups..
I just love the great outdoors.. Only recently discovered n/g's and am
really enjoying the interaction..

There are all sorts of outdoors one.. camping, hiking, biking, skiing...
keep in mind, if you are new to usenet, that the crafts newsgroups seems to
a kinder gentler version of usenet. I love the outdoors groups, but they can
be more intense with various personalitites, flaming and so on.

g thanks, Penny... I'll keep that in mind :-))

Have to keep my mouth shut, heh heh... You should see some of the posts I
type up then when I read them over I hit the delete key and end up not
posting at all... lol

I'm not into flame wars at all.. I tend to block those threads after a
while..

Thank you for the n/g suggestions.. I'll have a look.
