Hello, Retroguy and all.

On behalf of all the great posters that we have missed in alt.usage.english
since Google dropped Usenet, may I ask you to carry that newsgroup
and alt.english.usage on your server, that we may offer them an "easier"
alternative to GG than using a proper newsreader?

You should really be using:
https://www.novabbs.com/common/grouplist.php

I need to get rid if the .ORG site, everybody wants to use it instead of
.COM for some reason. It's meant for tor, lol :)

Both groups are already available on www.novabbs.com:
https://www.novabbs.com/interests/thread.php?group=alt.english.usage
https://www.novabbs.com/interests/thread.php?group=alt.usage.english

I assume that is the site you are referring to. If not, let me know :)

Thank you.  Somehow I was looking at the wrong place:
  <https://www.rocksolidbbs.com/common/grouplist.php>
The correct list beging:
  <https://news.novabbs.org/common/grouplist.php>
