Hm. I don't see it. I killfile extensively, by sender, keywords, and
most effectively, by blocking crossposts. If your newsreader is capable
of killfile by regular expression (regexp), filter this:
Newsgroups: *,*,*
which does great for killing crossposts. Think about it - how much of
that is crossposted to 3 or more groups? Conversely, when is the last
time you saw something posted to 3 groups at once where it was on-topic,
or stayed on topic, on any of them?

Nothing to be gained by that. Don't try to out-whacko a whackjob.
