How far do you have to go to be 0??? btw, I've been monitoring this situation more closely in the past week, and it's clear that _some_ of the messages from people I have killfiled get suppressed, but there are still frequent occurrences where posts with negative scores show up. -- derek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

If I set it to =0 it doesn't work, as you say. This doesn't sound like your problem, but it took me, literally, years to understand that the input is VALUE RELATION articlescore (secondrelation secondvalue). So if you want to kill articles scoring less than 0, you need to enter 0 = not, as you might expect, = Hope this might help someone. Despite loving KDE I don't touch knode because it completely lacks the Do What I Mean factor, but I've had to get somewhat to grips with it because my love likes GUI newsreaders.

Knode 0.8.1 has a section in the manual on how to create a filter that functions as a killfile. I'm not sure if it would work with earlier versions or not. Procedure 2.4. Creating a Killfile Go to Settings-Configure KNode+Reading News+Filters. Create a new filter below unread, called killfile on. Be sure that Apply to single articles is set and then click on the Additional tab. Set score equal to or less than zero (=); then click the OK until you have exited the dialog. Open an article whose author should be killed and just type Ctrl+L(or select, from the Scoring menu, Lower Score for Author). This opens the Rule Editor (a part of scoring). You can optionally give the rule a name that matches the author (Kook, for example.) and then, if this is to be permanent, uncheck the expire automatically box; you'll see that this rule will change the author's score to minus ten (or the score you entered); finally, click OK. Go to the menu item View-Filter-killfile on. HTH -- Bud Rogers [EMAIL PROTECTED] KD5SZ

Why on earth would I want to change the status on the Unread filter to New? There's already a new filter for that. I have killfile filters for New, Today, Unread, and All. Works great. I know how it is _supposed_ to work. Hiding posts according to Score, however, doesn't work. I have both the Unread and New filters modified to operate on Single Articles, and include only scores =0, and posts routinely appear with negative scores. Incidentally, the KNode manual says that Ignoring threads operates by setting the score to -100 so that the thread can't be seen. That doesn't work either - ignoring a thread hides it _now_ but any future posts in the thread will be shown - just like changing the score for an author. -- derek
