First off, nope, it's perfectly possible for *a* person to destroy a
newsgroup.  All you have to do is post a troll, then reply to each and
every flame you get being even nastier, then continue on
geometrically.  It's not that tough.  I've seen it done too many
times.  As big as usenet has gotten the 'killfile the troll' technique
doesn't work anymore.

As far as being difficult goes, not really.  A well moderated group is
so fast as to be unnoticable.
