"Janet Baraclough.." wrote in message ... The message from "Franz Heymann" contains these words: What is the *real* purpose of gardenbanter? Making money for the webmaster. Internet advertisers want to buy space on websites which lure large audiences. Each occasion a person logs on to the website, is called a hit. The more hits a website records, the more it can charge to advertisers. A website that acts as a portal to usenet groups can score a vast number of hits, even though the website itself has no content. Thanks, Janet. At last I understand. What a miserable occupation. Let's all think hard about how we could make a monkey of gardenbanter without actually breaking any laws. Perhaps we could point out to each poster coming in via gardenbanter how stupid it is to acces urg via that website rather than joining urg directly. Franz |

Google won't archive it, but sites like gardenbanter will Yes it will because if anyone replies to such a post the original message is generally going to be in the reply (very few people snip) and thus will be archived by google. X no archive is pointless these days (and maybe always has been). -- Tumbleweed Remove my socks for email address |

Google naively assumes that people will snip posts, not copy the complete post over and over again. My mail tool has a "Respect others X-no archive settings" but I am not sure what it does other than give the user a warm feeling :-) There's a similar site to gardenbanter that collates boat newsgroup posts. At least I understand the motivation now. |
