I still lurk occasionally, but usually the only thing I see is the plethora of spam and trolls. I also miss the days (years, actually) when ASDLC was vibrant and helpful to a lot of people.

I notice that when someone posts a relevant post, they get an answer. Unfortunately, there are very few of those posts going on these past few months. Doug F, Susan, and some others are real good about answering legit questions. I do miss the days when this newsgroup was active and informative, before the "idjits" stumbled in. :-)

is that, when a new visitor arrives, they will see all these worthless, predatory ads, regurgitated from the bowels of Mordor, and think that is what alt.support.diet.low-carb is about. I know this grates on some of you "old timers", but I think it is necessary to keep a light in the window to let new visitors know that support is available, if they will just ignore the dark that seeps into the newsgroups, and post their question(s).
