 Don't redirect Doctor Who discussions to non-Doctor Who
newsgroups, you fuckuing assholes.

 Uhh...take a look above, uk.media.tv.sf.drwho IS a Doctor Who
newsgroup, you fucking moron.  RA.sf.tv, and RA.sf.fandom,
while not Doctor Who specific, are still relevant NGs for
Doctor Who discussions.

 There is a serious discussion that could be had around whether
Doctor Who is relevant to a sci-fi/tv group like rec.arts.sf.tv,
as Doctor Who is a TV show with sci-fi elements,

There is no discussion. Doctor Who definitely can belong in rec.arts.sf.tv and rec.arts.tv and rec.arts.tv.uk.misc among a few other newsgroups.

but going around calling everyone assholes isn't really going to get much
traction.
 

If you don't like it, there is such a thing as a k-file...use
it; don't say you are overwhelmed as the x-posting isn't as
frequent as you like to claim.

 I can't understand these serious Usenet nerds with their
precious newsreaders that won't use killfiles or filters and
instead want every newsgroup to contain only posts that THEY
want to see, or they start getting uppity and throw their toys
out of the pram.

The vast majority of posts in rec.arts.tv are political crap and idiot trolls that have nothing to do with TV at all.
