Don't worry RuuD (nice name), soon it will be another sim dominating this
ng. But as GPL is everyones favourite at the moment, it will be here for a
while.

Of course no one is stopping anyone from posting non-GPL stuff.  It IS the
hot sim of the moment, so it should be discussed here, and often.

Actually, Outlook Express will filter out things based on Subject or From.
Won't filter based on the actual text of the message, but most GPL posts
will have GPL in the title, so most could be filtered with Outlook.  Of
course I want all the info I can get, so won't be filtering it anytime soon
<g>.

But I did put this to good use to filter out most of the off-topic posts in
the Voodoo 2 newsgroup, and all the Derek Smart / BC3K stuff in the strategy
newsgroups, so it does work, although probably not as well as Agent.

We go through this everytime there is a new good sim out, don't worry
the GPL level will go down in a few weeks, meantime if you don't want
to see GPL posts add GPL to your kill file/filter and there you go
problem solved.

Same thing will happen when Nascar2000 is released and GP3 and....

That's because GPL is the latest and greatest car sim ... the same
thing happens in ALL newsgroups. Live with it.

Actually, Outlook Express does allow filtering of the type you describe,
rrevved.  (And probably more, but I don't filter much--I like to know what
I'm ignoring.  <g>)  I just filtered out "GPL" in message headers on Outlook
Express to see if it works, and it does.
