I never said I couldnt, as usuall you have missed the point..........
The groups agreed upon charter has been that yEnc is not wanted in
this group. Period.... Yet you folks just dont have the common
courtesy to respect that....... You keep throwing up this Oh this
yEnc thing is the greatest thing since whatever crap when all along
all weve asked was that people post in a basic format that everyone
here can enjoy without having to jump thru hoops to do it...... Id of
answered this earlier, but your in my OE Kill File and I happened to
see this when I checked up on a image for a friend that doesnt do
yEnc.... That is corrected now here too....

I don't know if you're replying to me or to whom, but I'll say this
much. I don't claim to know much about the yEnc advantage other than
file size--I generally don't get that worked up pro or con about ANY
hardware or software. What I do know is that I'D have to "jump thru
hoops" to batch post files in the non-yEnc way. I'd have to learn
somerthing new and do something new, which is exactly what YOU seem to
want to AVOID doing. If you think that when I post files I'm also
going to put effort into spoon-feeding them to you, guess again. And
from what I can see in the posts, there is nothing even approaching
consensus in this group regarding yEnc. It is also false to claim
that UU encoding is a "basic" format. It is encoding, just like yEnc
is--it just happens to be older.

Like I said, it really doesn't affect me or anybody else if my
pictures aren't viewed by absolutely everyone. They're just pictures.
I've learned to actually lift a finger and more when I want something
bad enough--I really don't have the mentality of being waited on, but
I see that the entitlement mentality is alive and well among some
here.

(Aside: historians and anthropologists have now shown beyond a doubt
that a division of opinion on yEnc was the original reason for the
split between Shiites and Sunni.)

I've been involved in this issue for less than a week, and my
involvement in any further discussion ends now.


Well put!
