I think maybe those desperate for attention went elsewhere.

It looks like you are trying to connect to IPv6 and your puter
don't like it for some reason that I don't know. You could try
forcing it to connect to IPv4 by putting the IP address
(135.181.20.170) in instead of news.eternal-september.org.

First make a note of your username and password.

Account settings -> server settings. In 'server name' replace
news.eternal-september.org with 135.181.20.170. Click OK.

When you try to open a newsgroup it will prompt you for your
username and password. Do that and check the box saying use
password manager.

But the 'server' is working.
So it ain't a server issue.

It's a newserver and V's computer doesn't like connecting to its
IPv6 addy. It don't appear to be a problem for most other users of
the service, so it isn't a server issue.
Are you trying specially hard to be more stupid than usual?

Thanks for that, and for writing it out step by step... I hate to do
things like this!... will try to follow it next time I get that message.

Sometimes I just stop trying to post a message and turn my computer off,
then it will send when I turn it back on.

I seldom see anything from you these days V. Perhaps if your post
doesn't appear, then a repost might work?

Yes, but content is in the eye of the beholder. In the early days of %
posting here, his pithy comments often got me thinking about why I said
something I had. And given how many pissed of comments there are from
people who are so obviously upset by him and who fake identities to get
at him, his content clearly has sufficient value even if it is only to
just piss off retards.

What displeases me is dimwits like you who have never had anything
interesting or challenging to say.

Well at least you continue to piss off that particular retard. :-)

How very brave of you.
I gave up posting much here mainly because of you and Fat Dave and
although I don't speak for anyone but myself, I notice there are
very few posts from anyone at all. Ponder that.
