I don't mind you promoting your website (I do think it's a bit silly to
promote it on usenet, but I don't mind it), but don't you think twice in
two days is a bit much?

The big advantage to posting to a web "forum" is that nobody can killfile you,
unlike Usenet where it can be a real factor. I presume that csheppard91 is
attempting to keep the statistics favourable...

One needs a web filter (Proxomitron, Privoxy, or so) and then
one can set a custom filter for the page with the article
list. For example, the filter is then told to search this page
for

<li>*From*(Name0|Name1)*/li>

and replace this by "", which will delete all entries (the
complete HTML-list entry for the article) from authors named
"Name0" or "Name1". (I have used this to filter forums.)

Interesting; thank-you. I should have guessed that such tools would exist.
