Pet Forum / Mammals / Rabbits / June 2008Losing access - alternatives?
Not me - StealthBunny. Time Warner discontinued newsgroup service effective today, with no warning, and Cam can't get back on here. Besides Google Groups, which we all know loses posts and is awkward to use, does anyone know of any free ways to access here (Even the low-cost ones are out of her reach now). I'll forward all posts on this thread to her, since I IM her nearly every day. Wendy Zski and PepperBunnee I've been using google for a few years now Ronie This site Talkaboutpets isn't too bad. I've used it on occasion. http://www.talkaboutpets.com/group/alt.pets.rabbits/  SignatureGod Bless, Arlette, Cocoa & Brownie in heaven (See us here) http://www.flickr.com/photos/11393346@N02/ Need a vet?

All my business admin work is out of the home now so, I got make sure all that is working before I can play:) Wish that Talk Abou Pets had a spell check though as I am the Typo King - Message posted using http://www.talkaboutpets.com/group/alt.pets.rabbits More information at http://www.talkaboutpets.com/faq.htm I'm sure we'll be able to decipher your posts Daryl...LOL SignatureGod Bless, Arlette, Cocoa & Brownie in heaven (See us here) http://www.flickr.com/photos/11393346@N02/ Need a vet?

I can't justify the low cost access ones right now either. Hope to get back with all of you again someday if not soon. Good-Luck to all of you and your little bunnies too!!

Well worth it and I didn't miss a beat and it works just great - and I can now just thumb my nose at the idiots who thought they could limit access to global information. > Dave had an excellent alternative news server @ $15 A YEAR!

Paypal calculated the exchange and took MY dollars. :-) Depends on which side of the transaction you look at! If you don't like Google, get this newsserver. It's got me saying "Verizon who?" ;-) Also try looking here! http://www.newsservers.net/FreeNewsServers.php Professor, The Jump, Zolo, Wizard, & Magic Brenda > Dave had an excellent alternative news server @ $15 A YEAR!

I posted a warning last week on this group that others have replied to. Granted I didn't cite just which ISP's were dropping the group (or all Usenet access) because several large ones were and the list seemed to change..... i find her through msn. it is part of their deal. i wonder if it can be searched like that? i will see if it has a address. http://sg4msntv.com/apps/discuss/showposting.asp this is what is shows... ughhhhhhhhh, Google groups :( Will have to do this for now. That individual. net thing does not take my preferred form of payment. I hope you don't have to validate every darn post on Google because my eyes are not like they used to be and those things screw me up. (obtw that e-mail address is not valid). This Google group thing sure has changed from the last time I used it. Can't believe they figured out how to make it suck more.......... Daryl & Junior --------------------------- > Not me - StealthBunny. > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Wendy Zski and PepperBunnee I've been using Free Agent, but I think it goes through news.west.earthlink.net for me [I use Earthlink for my ISP] so I don't know if that would work for the disposessed among us. I do like it; there is a fancier version that has a fee but the plain version works just fine for me. HTH. Cheers, Diva and the Long Beach Three >Not me - StealthBunny. > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > >Wendy Zski and PepperBunnee I'm on, news.west.earthlink.net, too. Earthlink is my ISP as well. They have two huge news servers. One you mentioned, plus, news.east.earthlink.net. I have the paid version of Agent, but free agent is cool. I used to use that too. I use Netscape 7.2 to read APR because it works really well with our format. Here are some free servers. http://www.newsservers.net/FreeNewsServers.php Professor, The Jump, Zolo, Wizard, & Magic Brenda >I've been using Free Agent, but I think it goes through >news.west.earthlink.net for me [I use Earthlink for my ISP] so I don't [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > > |
