How about we change the name of this list, to better reflect its use?
This will just make the list officially alt.alt.alt.cunty.scumbags.politics.and.vulgar.insults My counter suggestion is self moderation: this might split the list making it easier to read. Make whitelist or blacklist and do not read or reply to anything below forbidden actor's posting. Close to this works for me. The expected result is looped trolls with occasional other posts and some "ontopic" stuff with minor(?) pollutions by trolls. Limit of new news threads per day makes some sense too. From 2016-08 to 2017-02 (the new version of the list) I have about 4.8K emails. From 2014-04 to 2016-08 (the old version) I have about 12K emails.
