I'll check in with the Groups team on this.

Must be my searches for a mermaid costume to wear to meetings with Google
spilled over to the forums.. Dupe Posts often get deleted from groups, and
if a spam group forwards posts to make it looked well trafficked it builds
ranking.

 

Google Groups is a haven for spammers.  Using the ListServe (email) is a
great way to make sure you get everything and that your messages are seen,
and you see everything.

Fascinating, you're right - it looks like Google Groups is under attack.  I
just found a post of mine now missing from the original group:

 

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/adultmermaidcostume/yE9miJdTqYU/iFv1nt4hJ5YJ

 

Wow.  This completely mangles the appengine group archives.  I take it back,
it's time to panic :-)

(they appear to be moved, rather than simply copied, as they have the
right sender, and missing from the original group)

Checking in Gmail (I'm subscribed to the group by email), I received
all four posts via the group originally for that thread.


Your profile
https://groups.google.com/groups/profile?enc_user=yjPEIRMAAABY6fDofa0rTjyZxp
XbZJ8UCrTwKYbraL2wE_wkV0bY1A
looks interesting too. Posts in all sorts of funny groups.
