Didn't work, abuse reported.

What do you mean abuse? I'm only trying to solve a connectivity
problem by making a one line usenet post!

LOL and what do you think Plus Net are going to do? They have better things
to do and dealing with real abuse reports rather than having to read stupid
ones. Perhaps it would be more productive to direct him to a test ng
instead?

Then you should use one of the many test usenet groups..

That's what the newsgroup uk.test is for.

I'm still amazed at all the clueless fuckers who still have not read the
Usenet updates that came out at about the time that Deja took over
archiving the newsgroups!

The reports went out rescinding the idea that posting to other
newsgroups was not on because they found out that posting to alt.test
showed propogation to alt.test only and no proof of further propogation
to other newsgroups. It was further advised that all was okay so long
as the Subject header showed that it was indeed a test so that those who
could read, could then ignore it.

Do people still join an ISP and think that Usenet is part of some
chatroom or something, as there are guidelines out there to help ?

Ahh, Dejanews is sadly missed, I still use their domain name to forward
to Google's Advanced Search from my bookmarks.

Shame they're not still around, it's great someone still has an archive
but Google ain't half messed things up interface wise. I wish they'd
sort out some kind of threading.. And call threads 'threads' instead of
topics.. And call articles 'articles' instead of messages.. And..

I think thats a good idea. I have had times when messages were not getting
to certain groups when I was on BT Yahoo. Turned out that they had added
the groups but had not added them properly and I was only seeing posts from
other BTY customers.
If people do not want to see tests they could always filter them out.
