i would like to know how you make the people who post all this off topic
crap just not show up at all , i dont want to read it, it's annoying

Depends on what sort of newsreader you are using but there is always some
sort of "block sender" (killfile) function. If you are not using a
newsreader and reading directly from Google Groups then you are out of luck.
But do not despair, there are newsreaders that are free, such as Xnews. And
even most mail readers (Thunderbird, OE, etc..) will also function as
newsreaders and also have the "block Sender" function.

I use a program called nfilter (news filter). It works with most
newsreaders. It lets you filter out any posting to multiple newsgroups
so you can block anything that spams the news server.
