Hi Richard,
This isn't a binaries newsgroup, so you can expect some flames. Just so
you know, you should post to a binaries group, or post a link here to
your photo on a webpage somewhere (such as www.photo.net).

Couldn't see why, it is a photo, which is what the NG is about.
I am not asking for money or anything else, just thought it was an
interesting photo to share that's all.
If anyone is upset, then maybe they should get a life.

Many ISPs drop binary posts in non-binary groups, including mine (Optus).
As aus.photo isn't a binaries newsgroup your picture wasn't even propagated
to Optus's news server.
If you want to share your photo(s) you'd be a lot better off taking Scott's
advice instead of showing us all your charm.

I was wondering where the photo went.
Internode must have dropped it as well.

Yes Don, I did serve overseas on a peace keeping mission. What is there to
laugh about that?
I don't understand the big fuss, it is a photo in a photo NG

Well, for a start there is the hilarity of the sheer irony of your
postings;
you apparently post something regarding peacekeeping in Rwanda. Most
people don't see it, as binaries are stripped from many isps to groups
that are non-binary. The locals gently point this out to you, and tell
you that this is not protocol, and basically a waste of time in these
'ere parts. You insist that you know best, and abuse those who disagree.
A flame war ensues. Are you getting it yet????
So lets go over it one more time: This ng is broadly and basically to
discuss photography and photo related issues, or to post a link to where
we can view your photos because aus.photo is not a binary group!! whilst
Im sure your photos are interesting, they remain to most, invisible.

Typical rude, ignorant, arrogant grunt.

You gotta wonder about a system that provides weapons & training to
such anti-social wackos.

If the government is serious about keeping those pesky Rwandans
under control, they should send this newsgroup over there.
We'll soon put them in their place!

I saw your photo and it makes me glad to live in Australia.
Congratulations on your tour of duty to make the world safer.
Although it is considered not correct to post binary files ( images or
pictures )
to this newsgroup. Unfortunately nobody explained what a binary is !
Some of them were born with a knowledge of newsgroup rules and were
never new to newsgroups apparently. Those rude people disgust me.
A link to a web site is the way to share your pictures, but I know
this is not possible for everyone.
I'd rather view one of your photos than 150 replies to "how do I avoid GST
and cheat the government when buying camera gear from USA"
I'm sorry for your bad experience here whilst simply trying to share a photo
of interest.
Regards,
Max...

Did you ever think Richard may not have known what a binary is ?
Maybe you should read your own tag line!

If that was the case, I'd have expected that admission a while ago.
(I've given up expecting people to got to the enormous effort of
googling a term to find out for themselves...)

I've got 2700 of them, changing at random every four seconds - I don't
know which one is on it until I see the post in the newsgroup :-)

I think you'll find that it's the continued "I didn't do anything wrong"
(despite obviously not having a clue about what is accepted behaviour)
attitude that's provoking the ongoing comments...

It was good advice. It's bad netiquette to post binaries to a non-binaries
group.
I never saw the original message at all; it got deleted by one of the
servers along the way because it's not a binary group.
