Not really. Scoring works on scoring conditions. Unless you can define a satisfactory scoring condition that applies to all those articles as a group, and that isn't overbroad, applying to articles NOT in that group, no. However, as I've posted before, the scorefile format is actually quite flexible, with the PAN GUI not really doing it justice. Editing it directly, combining all the GUI-added scores you've added over the years and removing old, expired ones, can not only seriously optimize the application of those scores (and the readability of the scorefile), but allows enough flexibility that you'd be surprised at how much you can actually do with what's there, and how concise and efficient the result can end up being. Eventually your need to constantly fiddle with scoring to get the desired result goes down dramatically, as it's all pretty much handled automatically, with occasional exceptions as spamming methods (and obfuscated keywords) change, or for new temporary non-spam blocks, watch- threads, etc. And permanent additions become trivial to add and maintain along with the previous ones, too. Having just finished one on a different list/group, I'm not in the mood for one of my multi-hundred-line replies, so I'll simply refer you to earlier posts I've made to the list on the subject. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
