I've seen a lot of rfc posters there lately.

I wouldn't know... I use NIN and they don't do binary groups. I don't
really care about binaries. Don't take pictures of food anymore, either.
It was fun for a while but I'd rather eat my food than plate it up and try
to make it look pretty. It gets cold while I'm trying to take the perfect
photo. More important to me is that it tastes good :)

No, it's always about YOU. And you're not doing anything but making
yourself look like an obsessed ass.

If you don't know then why did you post about it? I know this is
typical of you but it really is ignorant.

My suggestion is that people check to see if their newserver carries
certain binary groups, like ABF, even if they say they don't. Mine
does. ABF is a low volume group, with binaries that transfer in a
fraction of a second. That's not the kind of group that they are trying
to exclude.

The reason why the binaries convert quickly is because posters try to
put up small pictures. It's an international group and a lot of
people are still on dial up and all the baggage that comes with it.

Nonetheless, good suggestion.

I used Eternal-September for a year or so. There was a garden group
that came in along with ABF but only the smaller binaries got through.
I'd see responses but no picture.

Sorry to piggyback on your post, Dan. "Lou" hasn't fiture out yet that
I've had him blocked for years. I don't care to look at photos of food. As
I've stated before, I used to take pictures of the food I cooked and I even
posted to ABF in the past. But I'd rather eat what I cook than take
pictures of it.
