Sorry, "Ian", old shoe, but you know perfectly well why binaries are NOT
to be posted to non-binary NGs. It's not a matter of "don't like it,
don't open it" -- it's STILL a massive drain on the storage resources of
the Web's many news servers, by whose good graces and at whose
sufferance these newsgroups are allowed to exist. Many servers have shut
down unpoliced non-binary groups that get filled with huge files like
yours, and it could happen to THIS group too. Besides that, many people
get NG message downloads en masse, and seven of your turdbombs makes a
HUGE difference in connect time. If a "bloke from other side of planet"
wanted to see them, you could have emailed them to him privately as
attachments, or posted them to one of the 27 gazillion free image
posting sites all over the Web, and simply provided a link in one
message. But you were too ***ing lazy to do that, weren't you?
BTW, hiding behind your lame-dick "anonymous" email identity doesn't do
much good when the full headers of your SEVEN 400+K binaries clearly
reveal the message path. I've already complained to your ISP, and will
continue to do so. Netcop? Yeah -- I am...ask in
rec.autos.sport.f1.moderated what can happen to an unmoderated NG when
its members don't adequately police themselves -- and then go over to
rec.autos.sport.f1 (the unmoderated one) to see flamers and binary
bombers doing their best to drive THAT group off every news server on
the planet.
MAYBE you shouldn't have bothered? ***y well right you shouldn't have
bothered. Act like an *** or get stuffed...

Look mate,
I SENT them to the binary group a couple of days ago.
Checked replies (from Rafe M)
Not everyone can get binary group, bloke from other side of the planet who
said he'd love to see them tried to go through Remarq to see them...some no
show.
After exchanged messages, posted them here for bloke from other side of the
planet.
Figured that people would cut me some slack seeing as non-uk simmers would
like to see and read whole article.
You should of passed on by.
Re: UK phone charges.
I live in UK, so I know EXACTLY how much it ***ing costs.
Download one then stop....go read something else.
Maybe I shouldn't have bothered....just trying to add to GP3 debate.
