dumping this newsgroup

[shirley]

I guess this newsgroup is knackered as a result of all the spam. Any
recommendations where I can find a functioning newsgroup on a climbing
topic?

There's rec.climbing, I guess.

But if more people posted here, the spam wouldn't be so noticeable;
there isn't really that much, you know.

That's it, sadly there is almost no on topic activity on this group. I
expect there are still quite a few people keeping an eye out for
posts...

Somebody already mentioned rec.climbing

If you want something more UK oriented, not a chance. As much as anything,
I think its the success of the web forum that's killed it. Not as nice as
Usenet imo, and pretty hopeless if you don't have broadband.

In case you didn't know its here:
