Clem, upgrade to what? Why should I upgrade (or install unwanted

programmes)
when all you need to do is resize your pictures before you post them. The
best pictures on this NG come from Glenn (IMO) and we don't have to

install
any upgraded software to view his images, so what is so special about

yours?
If you can't take his lead, maybe you are the loser and we have missed
nothing....

Absolutely. I have to decode yenc in the book newsgroups but before I waste
my time decoding - I already know what I am going to get. Why should I
spend a lot of time downloading a single huge picture then have to decode it
just to find something I don't want in the first place? Post in a downsized
picture format and save me time in viewing. I killfile anyone in the
picture groups which post in yenc because of their inconsideration in
thinking their stuff is so important that they have to post in huge size and
waste my time. Another thing is that many servers (not mine thank goodness)
have very limited server space and posting in yenc can rapidly fill it up
pushing other material off. I agree that yenc has many good points for
certain things like the book groups but in here - NO!!

This is just an open thought not directed at anyone in particular.


Regarding YENC:


There does come a point when to stay current, you MUST upgrade.

This group has decided to be YENC-free and has reaffirmed the decision many
times. If it goes YENC, I'm leaving.

WHO are YOU to say what is a good newsreader, or not?

If he likes it, I like it, and thousands of others like it, it must be plenty
good, for our needs.

Who is to say Yenc is an improvement, for that matter? Not me, or many others.

Tell would you want to power your car with a 1 cylinder 2 stroke engine or
would you rather have a good auto engine of 4 cylinders or more.
But then since I have never seen post of any pics here I guess your
rudeness would be less pardonable than from someone who has share photos
here

As to this whole yenc or not argument her I don't use it to post but my
newsreader can decode itand it can rejoin multipart post OE can't do that
ergo OE is an inferior news reader. fit for newbies and those who are
stuck in the last century.

"Good" is a matter of opinion. OE sends and receives email, it has a broad
group of filters, it doesn't force me to open anything I don't want to read,
it reads from and posts to newsgroups, it combines and decodes.....just what
would make it "good"? YENC??? From my experience, anyone who says OE is
trash simply doesn't know how to use it.
