   Yes, programmatically.   
      
   You can do pretty much anything if you know how to use the tools available.   
   Though I was never convinced by Sinclair's claim you could run a nuclear power   
   plant using only a ZX80.

   That you are a retard and have no clue about the technology available does not   
   make me a liar.   
      
   You will probably need an adult to explain it to you but what I have is an RFC   
   3977 compliant Proxy NNTP Server which downloads all posts. It stores every   
   post and logs all titles which can be inspected later until its cache is   
   flushed.   
      
   The Proxy NNTP Server filters received posts and determines whether I will see   
   them or not. Those I will see are moved to a pool which my newsgroup client   
   pulls from. I only see what doesn't get filtered out. It's basically a very   
   smart programmable kill-   
   file.   
      
   As well as filtering posts; it uses various techniques to identify duplicate   
   posts and nym-shiftig, filters those out as well as logging when that occurs.   
      
   On top of that it also provides auto-respond functionality based on   
   characteristics such as poster's name, subject title, post content, headers   
   and other things.   
      
   Part of minimising posting rejection in the NNTP message passing chain is to   
   humanise those auto-responses. It does that using various tricks, some which   
   are more obvious than others, some you haven't even noticed. Given you have   
   noticed subject title    
   changing the code to do that is -   
      
      index = post.title.find("*[AUG][3][2006?]*")   
      if index >= 0 and random(AUG_2006_FILTER_PERCENT):   
         replace = post.title.truncate(post.title.find("*[2006?]*", index) + 4)   
         if replace.find("*[AUG][3][2006?]") >= 0:   
            post.title = replace   
      
   Yes, that is coded in Python. It's a very powerful scripting language as you   
   would know if you weren't so retarded and technologically illiterate. It's   
   perfect for easily implementing a Proxy NNTP Server with add-ons.   
      
   The filtering obviously removes its auto-responses to previous posts. I don't   
   know about you but I see very little traffic in this newsgroup other than your   
   posts which aren't duplicates or auto-responded to, and of course posts from   
   those it hasn't    
   filtered.   
      
   But you believe whatever you want to believe. You always do.   
      
   You are the lame one, an ignorant retard, as you repeatedly prove, time after   
   time.
