I suspect there is little activity in part because of the junk.  Someone
looking at the group might think it's dead.  You can't ban anyone from a
public Usenet group and their provider won't do anything so the best
plan of to filter them out.

And then there has to be some other content.  Making interesting posts
is the best way to revive a group, but I can't come up with anything!
