I'm on Earth, where Google Groups eventually acts against
complaints that match their definition of spam - which may
not match yours - but often takes complaints about each
instance of the spam for about 6 weeks to do it.  I doubt
if frequent posts with "spam" in the title, but no ads in the
body of the posts, would match their definition.

They are, however, much more active at blocking anything
that matches their definition from reaching anyone who
used Google Groups to read the posts.
