Q: The
content doesn't seem to be the same on all the servers, why?
A: This is
because the servers are located in different geographical areas with different feeds and peering arrangements at
each. We have designed our system this way for redundancy and speed.

Q: I am unable to
access certain groups via the web gateway, why?
A: As it is stated in our terms, some groups are only accessible via a newsreader. The reason for this is due to a
legal issues in regards of providing a way to decode any images that some one else posted. If you do encounter any
questionable material that somebody, posted please let us know so that we may remove the offending article.

Q: Some
newsgroups seems to be expiring very quickly, why?
A: The rate of
article expiration will vary by group and will depend on the amount and size of new articles coming in. This is
especially true for binaries groups. We do not set limits on retention time, the only limitation is the amount of
disk space available.

Q:
Why are there articles missing in the binaries newsgroups?
A: This can
happen for several reasons. The most likely is that some of the articles (or parts of articles) were filtered out as
spam before they reached our servers. We do not filter any incoming articles on our binaries servers, everything we
receive from our upstream is posted. Many news servers limit the maximum article size and if any articles are in
excess of that size the server will cancel it automatically and it will not propagate out. Also, all news servers
have the right to filter out anything that passes through their server. Keep in mind that usenet was designed to
carry only plain text, not large binary files. Processing binary articles places twice as much strain on the server
as plain text articles do. For these reasons no guarantee regarding completeness of binary articles is expressed or
implied by NewsfeedsUnlimited.com.

Q:
Some articles that I post from newsfeedsunlimited.com do not seem to propagate to other
news servers, why?
A:
Another news server may be canceling them . We can take no further responsibility for articles not propagating once
they have been sent to our upstream servers. Another reason could be if you have a record of abuse on our servers
your posting access may have been disabled. Once your posting access has been disabled due to posting abuse it will
never be restored, so don't even ask. Nor will we issue refunds for this reason.

Q:
I'm getting an AUTHENTICATION FAILED message
A: First,
check that you entered the correct username and password. If you forgot your username and/or password,
email webmaster@newsfeedsunlimited.com about your
problem and we shall resend your username and password to your registered email. Unfortunately, we cannot
send this info to a different email because there is no way for us to authenticate your request.
If you are sure about your
username and password, then the error may be because your account exceeded the allowed number of simultaneous
logins. Also, some Usenet browsers do not disconnect cleanly, in which case you may have to wait a few minutes
before your account is cleared.
