• The foresight of the prophets?

    When the ne'er-do-wells who could not control their immature
    and infantile outbursts in these NGs, sought a moderated
    NG they were told that such a move would result in the
    near-death of both these NGs and also the new projected
    moderated
    NG.

    The prophesy has been fulfilled and yet the perpetrators
    of the abuse have themselves decamped

    Why did they bother?

    Those same ne'er-do-wells were told that such a move would result in the weather turning colder in the winter and that prophesy has also been
    fulfilled.

    Do you have any data that demonstrates usage of these UK radio amateur
    groups has fallen faster than that of Internet news groups in general?

    The best data I have,

    UK Groups
    https://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/spoolstats/uk

    No of posts down by a factor of 3 since 2015

    Overall Usenet

    https://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/spoolstats/

    Similar trend, roughly same factor .

    There were 1068 posters in the UK in 2015 and 396 now ~ 2.5 times down

    Are there 3 times fewer posters in ukra than there were in 2015 ?

    The meek shall inherit the NGs.


    People will find their way back, hopefully the right kind.

    I myself just returned to Usenet a couple of days ago, last time I was
    here must have been 20 years or more ago. Though not on this group specifically, I just happen to have an interest.

    Enjoy! :D
