You might want to have a look at the "skip filter" mechanism

  http://news.lugnet.com/news/filter/

and see if adding

  -.bionicle

to your skip-filter does the trick for you.

(I'm not promising that it will solve your problem, but it might make things
a bit less annoying.)

I usually only read the technic news group so if I understand correctly
skipping the bionicle, roborider and slizer sub group will be equivalent to
the "view plain" option of the technic group which I have used.
