All they want is for you (and or others) to post within limitations that allow non geek people to look at all of the pictures posted. I believe that would be summarized by: Not too many pictures per day. 40 has been suggested as a top number. 'Suggested' by you. Not out to control things, eh? Yeah. Right. Post using formats that the newsreader used by the vast majority of reader use. That would be jpegs, and OE, respectively. So those who have real newsreaders must scale back to cater to those who can't be arsed to get a real newsreader? Not bloody likely. You have to remember that not everyone has the geek skills to do much more than that, or the aptitude or desire to learn any higher geek skills. Then bloody well killfilter the files you don't want to see. Don't tell others that they can't post 'em. Post in resolutions that require no more than (my arbitrary limit) of 250 KB. You have to remember that many people do not have broadband connections, and are not able to, either by limitations of money or distance from telephone switches for DSL or by the lack of cable systems in their neighborhoods that offer cable modems. Tough. I hope you reconsider, and can continue within the limitations that many on the group have expressed as deal killers for them. Have another drink, your post show your soused. Probably just fed up of twits like yourself. -- http://www.petersparrots.com http://www.insanevideoclips.com http://www.petersphotos.com Intercourse prevents divorce. |

Oh, you mean like what J3's been doing; by posting in a format that very few on this group want or have any knowledge about? If you mean "control others" in that context, clearly, you are mistaken; as I have not forced anyone to aquire software for a specific file type. J3, and the proponents of .rar have, on the other hand, been the ones trying to control others. J3 is not telling anyone to do anything. You do not have to download his posts. However you lot seem to think you can change the way other people post. -- http://www.petersparrots.com http://www.insanevideoclips.com http://www.petersphotos.com Wisconsin had recently installed new scoreboard-style highway signs that keep commuters up-to-date on current traffic conditions. At the time the message read, "Change speed to 50mph a head." I thought, "There are two heads in this car at the moment so . . . " and then looked over at my wife who, without waiting for me to say anything, simply said, "No." |

If you are needing to plonk (kill-file) me, I can't help you. I've *never* used MSOE. Besides, I'll be going back to the lurk mode when everyone (read Alan Einstein) quits bitching, telling lies and generally confusing noobs about RARs, PARs, splits and arbitrary retention times for various NNTP servers. I won't even go into YEnc. That's already been shown to be a fool's errand in this group. If everyone is happy chopping down trees with a herring, I'll just continue quietly using my chain-saw. |
