The owner of this newsgroup needs to delete all those old messages. Its annoying to download 150 messages just to look at 15 new ones. That's just my personal thought for the day. --------------------------------------------------------------

While I did create this newsgroup, I, nor anyone else, owns it. The alt.tv.southpark newsgroup is unmoderated.
Your news application most probably has the ability to 'screen' for new postings, as well as the ability to not download previously-read articles.

Now, don't go knocking ISPs in here. That's just petty. Besides, mindspring is hardly AOL or WEBTV. ;-)

The owner of your newsreader needs to learn how to use it. You should only be d/l'ing NEW messages, since the old ones just don't go away. This is usenet, not some web chat-room.
