Hi!
 
There has been some discussion for a couple of days that Supernews has a"Binary Filter" that seems to have kicked in on some of the non-binary news groups.
 
It would appear that in addition to alt.svens. house, which has been affected for a couple of days, it has now gone to work on alt.svens.
 
What's next?
 
Sincerely,
Naturist

Many news servers filter binaries from groups not specifically
identified as binary groups. Nothing too unusual about that. While I'm
no expert on the subject, I've heard that it has something to do with
server space. Interesting though... Out of curiosity, I subcribed to
that asparagus group (I use SuperNews) and discovered that the KP is
alive and well there. If the moralists were responsible for deleting
pics from svens, they sure as hell went after the wrong group! Maybe
they never looked at "asparagus."

So which is it, Speedfuck? You're either in favor of censoring, or you're
not. Do you even THINK before you write this bullshit, or does it just
flow freely, kind of like diarrhea... no brain cells involved? The only
thing inferior around here, asshole, is YOU!

I was havin' one of my moments, Trey. Of course, I know it wasn't worth the time
it took to type that message since Speedtwat uses his magic filtering device to
cut me off at my ISP. Never mind the fact that he has no fuckin' clue what ISP I
use. Just more of his bullshit. I'm surprised he hasn't taken full credit for
the policy changes at Supernews.
