"100% Completion" - You've got some nerve, Giganews!

I've come across JBinUp on my Linux box and have no negative things to say about it ... except for the use of Java.

Same here, downloaded Chronicles of Narnia and got 3 missing parts, easily repairable though.

It's about time for someone to mention the workaround strategy of using backup servers and end this thread.

This thread needs to be on top 100% of time to prevent new users from joining gigaSHit
We must hit them hard there it hurts most- their money.
Maybe then they'll reconsider their policy.

well, im kinda joking but there's a grain of truth in every joke

As for the backup servers.. for that price they should not only get rid of this dmca shit asap but send us every time they get paid of our CC wine ,roses and a personal stripgirl to perform a lap dance lol.

or a grain of salt about the size of Lot's Wife.

I've still got lots bits on an Astraweb block account I bought from 7 years ago when I was on Giga, it's the 'gift that keeps giving'. I've also got some Blocknews that will probably last until I take the final dirt nap, now that I'm on Astra as my main squeeze.

If you have Newshosting, you are served by a comely News Hostess.

I bought a non-expiring block from a provider in 2005 and it isn't used up yet.

I'd settle just for the stripper.

So, does usenetserver uses the same backbone as giganews? I don't pay too much attention to who belongs/resells whom.

Looks like highwinds(same retention as newshosting)
