please see enclosed reply I sent to "Cerumin", I didn't think it was bad
enough to earn his response, but if my manner of writting is not what is
expected at groups, I would appreciate any advice people can give.

Indeed how stupid of you not to first read the group before contributing
even, as you will have seen, and hopefully learnt some groups welcome
picture and are normally tagged "binary" others do not. I didn't block your
picture my newsgroup server did because you broke the rules, you however
seem not only to be a novice but an argumentative one and therefore I have
now totally blocked you.

You might learn how to use a spell checker as well it might make your emails
and Usenet postings more accurate and readable.

I see from your headers

You use Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1437
that has a default spell check, try allowing it to do it's job.

Goodbye

I'm sorry that you think blocking a picture of a plant is so great. Being
a
novice to computing I was unaware of the restrictions on getting
information
from what appeared to be a group on gardening, which afterall is a mainly
visual experience. How stupid of me.

Don't post graphics attachments to this ng, as this is a text-only
newsgroup and many of the servers will strip the attachment from your
post.

My server seems to have blocked the entire original post thankfully.

Yes it is a picture posted to a non binary newsgroup.

Which a lot of us can't even see since our ISP removes them, so it's a
bit self -defeating.

I even got a rather snotty email from the original sender of the binary
tonight complaining about my earlier post in this thread. Says they are a
novice Usenet poster which seems obvious, also now an ignored novice.

Novices should learn by their mistakes not criticise those who point them
out?
