This proves it, only Bobspit would post something this contemptible.
BBob, you really are one sorry asshole.

Hurt the group? WTF are you babbling about, you idiot?
News Servers are monitored by their owners for bandwidth use. They
determine how
long to keep posts in various groups based on how much bandwidth
they use. Busy
groups get watched more closely. If people start posting binaries to
a non
binary group that is also a fairly busy group, they shorten the
retention time
for ALL posts to that group, and in some cases, drop the group
entirely. It has
happened. Meanwhile, some of the most major News Servers
automatically kill any
posts with binaries attached, posted to non-binary groups, so your
message will
not even be seen by a large percentage of people. It's a stupid
thing to do,
which is why Web TV idiots such as Thom do it. He'll be dead soon,
so hopefully
it won't be an on going issue.
