Why the yEnc?
You know.... I suspect this is all from two or three people who go from
group to group, just for the purpose of causing trouble. |

Why the yEnc?
Alan,
supposing you are indeed correct.... it absolutely defies logic as to why so many folks attempt to argue, fight, persuade, or simply comment when someone posts in that format.... They crave the attention so many foolishly provide them. The absolute best and most effective method for dealing with this is to completely ignore them and their posts... They will move on. I think the funniest part of this is that people argue with others who are COMPLETELY anonymous... heck, you might as well just yell at a box of cheerios...

He's wrong, given that I, at least, have been here for a rather long time. And every pic I post has been Yenc. And no, I'm not going to change, precisely because of the abuse. Perhaps the anti-Yencers should have tried politeness. Rudeness ****es people off. |

Why the yEnc?
Sorry for the top post.
Glen, What your are suggesting is the silent majority syndrome. Everyone is ****ed off at X, but no one says anything, but X keeps growing because there is no opposition to it. I do not subscribe to this mentality, I do not like yEnc because it really does not save any space on the size of posts being brought to this forum or any other JPEG forum for that matter, but that is for the yEncers to justify. My two cents.

Wikipedia disagrees: "yEnc is a binary-to-text encoding scheme for transferring binary files in messages on Usenet or via e-mail. It reduces the overhead over previous US-ASCII-based encoding methods by using an 8- bit Extended ASCII encoding method. yEnc's overhead is often as little as 1–2%, compared to 33%–40% overhead for 6-bit encoding methods like uuencode and Base64. With decreased overhead, the encoded message body is smaller. Therefore, the message can be delivered faster and requires less storage space." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yenc Even Jeremy Nixon, the guy who put up "Why yEnc is bad for Usenet" disagrees with you. "The main premise behind yEnc is lower overhead for encoded binaries. The usual methods of encoding a binary for Usenet transmission, uuencode and base64, both result in more than a 33% increase in file size after encoding. yEnc, on the other hand, results in only a tiny overhead, meaning the posts are smaller. http://exit109.com/~jeremy/news/yenc.html .................................................. ...............
