Web's Best Friend publishes daily ratings to rated newsgroups to assist users,
software products, and search engines in both avoiding newsgroups with
consistently problematic/irrelevant content and in finding those with
relevant content.  The idea is create a global flight to quality, decreasing
readership of primarily spam/scam filled groups while increasing participation
in quality groups.

If you feel strongly (good or bad) about this group's content, or would like
to see how other readers feel about it, please visit the group's rating page at:

http://www.websbestfriend.com/getSiteRating.php?site=alt.fan.landrover

While you're there, you can also rate any URL (such as an auction,
the quality of the person in an online dating profile, etc), chat rooms,
Wikis - just about anything - and edit the description in realtime
for all to see.

"Web's Best Friend"  spammed us in a rather novel way, so 3/10 for effort.

They got you then, evidently :)

Why on earth would I care about how the group is 'rated'?
By whom? On what basis?
And why should a web site exist to record it all?

Think about it. It's just spamming commercial c**p. You just became
another IP address for their collection...

It's like those shitty websites that take newsgroups and copy all the
posts into their own web-based forums, if you feed a phrase you've
written about a month ago into google, you're likely to find it on
some 4x4 forum somewhere along with the rest of the posts in this
group.  Most irritating.  I've had emails from such websites in the
past telling me that someone has replied to my post in their forums.

Blast off and strike the evil Bydo empire!

Yes, we get a lot of that on uk.rec.gardening where people use Gardenbanters
web site amongst others to post to the Ng.
Obviously these people don't know about Usenet or even Newsgroups, are too
frightened to post direct, or find it too complicated to set it all up. With
many ISP's now dropping newsgroups (eg, Wanadoo recently) it will get worse,
either that or newsgroups will fade away.
We will all end up using http://news.individual.net eventually.
