We already use filters, but we can't kill all of it and it just keeps
getting worse. :( 

And the really bad thing really is because that my uplink is a Christian BBS,
and my BBS is a more of family BBS, I don't want a ten year old to see that
kind of stuff. (pornography ect..)

(we meaning, my uplink (accses site) and myself.)

Why don't you make these problems known to the regulars who post on 
the newsgroup net.admin.usenet.net-abuse ?  If you are doing what you 
can with filters they may be able to suggest something additional to 
or better than your present methods.
