uk.religion.pagan (URP) is a newsgroup. It is not a chat-room, it is not a
mailing list, it is a newsgroup, and as such posters are
expected to follow the appropriate netiquette. Though urp can be accessed
via Google Groups, and Google Groups does have the most complete archive
which I'm aware of, it is a usenet newsgroup and not a Google Group.
"The most important things we are most often reminded of are
(1) avoiding x-posting
(2) snipping of the irrelevant and
(3) no top posting."
- from a post by  Amethysta, in response to a request to know how things
work in URP.
To which I'd add "make attributions clear but snip excess quotes from your
reply".
Any comments, criticisms etc are welcome either in group or by e-mail to

Out of interest, and to see what - if anything - they do or say about
it, I've just reported the last batch of Mi5 posts, and the hentai
post, to Ggroups. Tbh, I can't see them doing much about the Mi5 thang
'cause I'm guessing it'll come from somewhere other than a Ggroups
account, but the hentai one was a gmail addy, and so it'll be
interesting to see if they do anything about that one.

Will keep y'all informed.
