As part of this thread, Marco Moock <mm@dorfdsl.de> replied: > If a place is empty and stays empty for a while, > people usually unsubscribe. I'm just the opposite. Remaining subscribed to a group with no traffic, especially one where I mostly read and rarely post, costs nothing. The main time I've unsubscribed was when a group had lots of traffic and I decided I no longer cared enough about it to spend the time it takes to engage with it. The other reason for not unsubscribing is that not all USENET servers carry all groups. If I use a provider that doesn't carry some group, I'll keep the subscription because some day I might add a provider that does carry it. As an example of not unsubscribing, I've remained subscribed to aioe.news.helpdesk even though AIOE has been dead for a long time. (Yes, that's not a Big-8 newsgroup, but using it as an example has some humor value.) Just my two cents, -WBE
