I'm getting more and more familiar with gnus. The thing is that
regardless of a newsgroup reader, I'm still very new to newsgroups in general.
The more I read into gnus tutorials the more I come across concepts
like: group level, scoring, marking, ranking.
I'm probably missing something here, but what's their practical usage?
Do you score/rank/mark/set level to groups? If so, how does it help you
later?
thank you in advance

I don't mean to sound rude, but did you look those concepts up in the
manual?
Group levels: http://gnus.org/manual/gnus_24.html#SEC24
Scoring: http://gnus.org/manual/gnus_262.html#SEC262
Marking groups: http://gnus.org/manual/gnus_26.html#SEC26
Marking articles: http://gnus.org/manual/gnus_76.html#SEC76
(Can't find ranking though, where did you see that?)
Best regards,
Adam

I admit I haven't read that part of the manual yet:)
When it comes to ranks, I think I saw it in emacs menu 'sort by rank'.
Do you use any of them yourself?
thanks
