a post with a bunch of yEnc Ron, why all of the yEnc? Have you not noticed that nobody ever uses that format, in this group? It sure would be more to polite of you, to use what is considered standard in a group. Plus, most will not take the time to pull up your pictures. -- Jim in NC |

@newsfe02.lga: Ron wrote: a post with a bunch of yEnc Ron, why all of the yEnc? Who cares why? It's a format thats been around for years now and a lot of people appreciate the format because of the file size reduction. If the files were another format I would still download them but yEnc is an acceptable user format that cuts time and size. Have you not noticed that nobody ever uses that format, in this group? For the last several years I've been here, I've seen frequent use of yEnc. Of course, if you keep plonking people who use it, you limit what you see. People who post using yEnc don't get a thing from it except a reduction in the time and file sizes they transfer. It's not an a ego thing. It's just another of the many ways you can post. It sure would be more to polite of you, to use what is considered standard in a group. It might be more tactful to ask a poster to re-send in a format you can decode rather than be arrogant and strike out at posters using the yEnc format just because you can't/won't use it. Plus, most will not take the time to pull up your pictures. Your absolutely correct. There are some very narrow-minded people here who consider yEnc to be so bad they believe their computers will get cooties and the hard-drive will fly-apart. If not viewing a yEnc post or plonking people makes you feel better go for it. It's not like a poster is out any money or redeemable user points if you fail to view it. The results last time were 50% were against yEnc and 50% were for it. The final word was download what you want and pass on the rest. Before anyone gets crazy and says the rules of the group are so and so, it was already established there are no rules posting using yEnc. |

The only ones who like yEnc are the ones who insist on posting that
scheisse. Aggressive ignorance. Who needs to clutter up their computer with crappy programmes just to view that crap?

Be nice, Gene! At least THIS group ought to practice civility and
exclude the sociopaths one finds elsewhere. Everyone has a view, the views are not mutually exclusive, and not one of us is tiotally correct. I've spent a small amount to buy Agent and it takes care of all that for me. I couldn't tell it it were this format or that format. Agent just produces the lists and the pictures. HF.

If I understand you, a program that does less for a user is a good program and a program that provides more alternatives is a bad program. Why didn't I think of that? So easy a caveman can do it! |

7.136... For the last several years I've been here, I've seen frequent use of yEnc. Of course, if you keep plonking people who use it, you limit what you see. I've been a reg on this group since 1999 and I hardly ever see a yEnc post. It's been tried (with the same old tired arguments), on a.b.p.animals as well, much to the consternation of the regs. |
