Jorge Cantu expressed precisely :


You are peddlers by implication. You can't tell me that if I used
Google to look up all those coin dealers, that they wouldn't have
something to sell. This is unacceptable abuse of Usenet. The vast
majority of Usenet storage falls on the mom-and-pop local ISPs. When
they agreed to carry Usenet posts, they did so based on the
noncommercial aspect of usenet. When you post commercial ads, which
even indirectly have a commercial aspect, that can in no way be
considered "discussion." Thus you are violating the terms you agreed to
NOT ONLY with YOUR ISP, but also with all of the mom-and-pop ISPs
downstream which have to propagate your spam. You are forcing people to
store your garbage on their machines. This is theft. This is illegal.
I have reported the original poster, to
. Please do the same and we can keep Usenet free of
spam. Every little action you can do helps.

Jorge


The "vast majority" of Usenet data is stored on mom & pop ISPs? Are
you living in
1993? You have no concept of reality. The internet is commercial now,
if you
haven't noticed. Ads are accepted by almost eveyone except for a few
freaks
like you who think its still run by universities and computer nerds who
run a 3 line
dialup 1200 baud BBS in their garage and have wet dreams about
getting a 64K
ISDN line.

GET A FREAKING LIFE!!!

You're partially right...but this isn't the Internet, its Usenet, and
if you don't know the difference then you're really behind.

Also, if you think that Earthlink will stand for you to post ads on
Usenet news groups, whose charter forbids such, give it a go. They'll
give you a warning after someone turns you in, and then pull your
account if it happens again.

So...you might look for a freaking life.

Only from people who are misquoting the original: “You can please all the people
some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you can’t please
all the people all the time.”

Virg Marshall, "The Penny Merchant", always left me with that
impression simply
by the name he used.

I have met Virg and know him to be an honest dealer, although I believe
he has since sold the business that still bears his name ( deja vu
Bowers & Merena?). I notice that Virg Marshall has expanded to the
States Quarters business as well, by the roll.

Don't be so hard on yourself, Jim; some of us think you're just a
douchebag.

Therefore, we have all offended someone, so none of us should be able

to
use the internet!


In your case, I think that's a great idea.
