Alan, no matter how he posted it someone would have whined like a baby

something. Is it so hard to simply ignore the stuff you don't like
without all
the whining and complaining?
Yes, it is too much to ask. As I suggested, servers have limited capacity;
putting up as much data as J3 did at one time might exclude other's posts.

No servers I know of have limited capacity.
For Binaries??? Often those who carry them limit the space and/or
retention time of them, some as low as 24 hours, but most are around 5
or 10 days.

Some of the commercial Usenet operations, e.g. OctaNews, carry them for
a lot longer, 3 months or so.
