There are lots of News Servers around the world. Any one of them may create and drop groups. Other news servers may choose to carry or not carry groups from other news servers. The current state of Usenet is such that most news servers exchange with several other news servers so there is not the hierarchy that your post suggests.
I didn't say that a group would disappear from all news group servers....I said that it would disappear from any of the news group servers which are downstream of the server which dropped the group.

If you're going to quote me at least do it right...it'd be the only think you've doing right out of this whole mess.
