I think that a separate newsgroup  is  neither  necessary  nor  healthy.
Anytime  a  bbs or other such electronic service starts breaking up into
smaller, more specific discussions, these discussions tend to  get  more
and  more  into  flaming about cross-posts and being in the wrong group.

Also,  look  at  how  many  times  a games question turns into a general
discussion on the computer capabilities, the shotcomings of  a  software
company, mail order problems, and so on.

I have no problems with skipping messages I don't feel like reading. Are
we    going    to    have    a     comp.sys.amiga.vs.st     group?     A
comp.sys.amiga.mail.order group? A comp.sys.amiga.pd group?
