What about a RP related NEWSGROUP?

Hi to all RP'lers,

we had a lot of discussions about problems with Spam and other stuff within this mailing list, also containing discussions about alternatives. Another possible way could be the creation of a RP-related newsgroup in the usenet, similar for example to sci.virtual-worlds or sci.engr.micromachining (just as examples...). Using a newsreader (almost every mail-program like Netscape, MS IExplorer/Outlook express, Pegasus etc. supports that), everyone could read the messages without getting them personally as email in his inbox. The readers also include downloading or sorting/viewing by thread, sender, subject, date and so on.

What do you think about that? This should be just an idea, unfortunately I am not a real expert about newegroups and their creation. However, maybe someone has an opinion about it....

Best regards from Aachen,
Carsten Freyer
