I don't know the policies of attachments for these forums, but it would maybe be possible to attach NZB files to threads for the lazy usenetter, such as the above poster asking the absurd.

....well i have to agree with you for not posting to a.b.starwars but not for those reasons. i am glad that i use giganews as my service provider cause the pace segaflip was posting those first few ot dvds... let me just say that i am just in the middle of september with the downloads. not everyone has +10Mb adsl+ what-ever connections nor the time to keep one of the most popular newsgroups updated. those fan edit dvds are not the only stuff that´s good in the newsgroups you know

a.b.dvd is a massive group and getting latest headers with agent is a drag. and no i´m not switching to a different prog just for that. i have filters and shit for agent and it works just fine for my needs.

the main question was just to ask that the only newsgroup it was posted to was not a.b.dvd. maybe there is another newsgroup more "friendly" to fan edit than a.b.dvd...?
