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.

Yes, it's usually a time limit, spread across ALL binary groups. J3's
posts is nothing compared with all the trafffic in every binary group
on the server.


Exactly. The moaners are making a mountain out of a pimple.

Ignore 'em, J3. Keep on going.

Just to **** 'em off further, I may post a few of the pix as well... using
YENC, of course.
