Re: Wow, what happened to this group?

Most people have moved on to web based forums.

UseNet was one of the original ways for hobbyists to share information.
It was great back when few people knew how to connect and those who did
were highly educated.  As griefers and spammers connected, UseNet really
couldn't keep up.

It's ironic that griefers who receive pleasure at destroying this group
rec.aquaria.freshwater.plants are really helping out because they force
people to move on to better places that will make them much happier.

Aquatic Plant Central http://aquaticplantcentral.com
might be the best
site.  Another great place is http://plantedtank.net
