   I think it would be a great idea to cut down quantity of postings on
this group.  I don't even have time to look through the subject lines to 
decide what to read.

   A few solutions
       
        1)  Get the game stuff posted on rec.games.misc
        2)  Make a new group comp.sys.amiga.games and get
            the games stuff posted there.
        3)  Have people put 'GAME:' in the subject line. 
            Then ones that don't want to read about games 
            could have a kill file to delete games.
   
   The first two solutions are plagued with the problem of convincing
people to post to the right group.  The second has the problem of convincing
people to follow an even more arbitrary convention.

   I personally prefer the rec.games.misc solution and I think a few 
good old fashioned flames could convince people to post there.
