I've just seen your post over at nzbmatrix ;)

The popular budget backend Xlned recently increased retention from 400 days to 900 days (seemingly overnight) so all its resellers like XSusenet should also pass this on.

I'm guessing that XLned probably pulled old articles from Highwinds -- since the completion appears to be similarly poor. (and let's pray that XLned never got close to the idea of ditching their server and reselling Highwinds - since it was one of the best -often free- solutions to Highwinds' legendary piss-poor completion.)

600 days is not that big of a deal, maybe a couple years ago when giganews was banging out 365days+, lol, servers with at least 1000 days retention are whats hawt;)

its a FREE BACKUP server.

that says it all

that says it all

Don't mind JustDOSE ... we all know by now he's just some patethic loser that seems to bring absolutely nothing constructive to FST, apart from calling everybody n00bs like a big crybaby :rolleyes:

600 days for a free backup-server is indeed very decent.
Let's hope their lifetime free accounts last a very long time.

It's a great backup server for binload and xsnews .I'm downloading some anime episodes age 608 days and they work nicely , i only got incompletes with one of them

its a FREE BACKUP server. that says it all huh? silly noob a backup server (or fill server) is supposed to have longest retention possible. wtf is the point of having a fill server that cant fill shit. lol

[Hypatia]

huh7 silly noob

if it's free its better than nothing.

[anon]

if it's free its better than nothing.

Definitely, and as a casual Usenet user I'm grateful for it. They're one of the servers in my "arsenal" and it's nice to see they've extended their retention time.

Anyone had completion issues with this server lately?

Only with a few files over 600 days retention
