I subscribe to this newsgroup, then usually junk all articles without
reading, to de-yadify the rest of Usenet and because this newsgroup's
regulars spend more time troll feeding yads than posting on Doctor Who.
This is one of Usenet's worst newsgroups for off-topic crap.

Of course, if you truly wanted to read on topic content, you yourself
would have to regularly post quite a bit of it yourself and hope on
topic threads would result. As you're unwilling to do that yourself,
then you contribute to the problem you've identified.

Since I personally despise all of this newsgroup's regulars for the
nonstop troll feeding of yads (and previously, of Tim), I will continue
to subscribe simply as a method of cleaning out the unwanted crossposts
from newsgroups I care about.

I could be wrong. Maybe this newsgroup isn't perpetual shit and nothing
but, but you'll never find out till you personally stop complaining
about that no one else has posted anything you care to read and start
posting interesting content yourself.

Newsgroups are ruined, not by trolls, not by off-topic posts, but
because the regulars themselves stop posting interesting discussion that
is on topic.

Whether this newsgroup can be salvaged is up to you and no one else.
