I hate when people do this. Why can't you just attract your own
posters instead of redirecting posts made specific to this group.

Not everyone wants to be achieved as participating in your forum and
that's why we're here.

Wow.. so much hate.

I apologize for trying to open another venue for talking about bass
fishing. I thought, obvioulsy incorrectly, that people might enjoy
having a place better suited for discussions than almost 30 year old
technology.

Again, my apologies.

No, people just get tired of everybody and his brother comin around
and wanting them to register to do what they already do without
registering. Not to mention you, at least in your current form, have
not posted word one here about Bass fishing or anything else other
than to promote your site and whine*.

* I'm not going to bother to google you.

I apologize for trying to open another venue for talking about bass

Another guy gonna show us how it's done, then gets offended. Did ya
bother to read the FAQ?

If your so up on technology you should know how this works. If not,
boy are you in for a surprise :}

Tell us who you are. Discuss something other than your brandy new
site. Maybe people would want to register on your site if they knew
you and thought you could be trusted with their registration info...Or
not.

If you just stopped in to dump your promotional crap, wonder why no
one shows up and then whine...Don't let the door hit you on the way
out!


Again, my apologies.

Don't apologize everybody has to learn sometime :}

The problem people have with your post isn't another venue for talking
about bass fishing. Those are a dime a dozen, and we get them all the
time here. Look for yourself he http://tinyurl.com/y4dnon
The problem is you harvesting our discussions from here and using them
as if we were posters to your website.
As far as 30 year old technology, we have an ability here that you
won't have on your website. We can set our newsreaders to ignore
posters that trash the place up with content we don't want to bother
with. I'd bet there isn't an option on your forum for me to read wanted
content while blocking your posts from my sight.

I'm gonna have to go look it up now, but I thought usenet was older than the
internet. Atleast older than the internet as we know it. Its an out growth
of the old message relay system of military and university computers.

Here is one history from
http://www.usenet.com/articles/history_of_usenet.htm

Birth of Usenet
Usenet was born approximately 3 decades ago, in 1979. It all began as a
small communication network between a few universities in the United States
used to trade information, news, and research results. It has grown from a
simple design without an official structure, to a logical network linking
millions of people and computers to over 100,000 different newsgroups and
millions of bytes of articles. What began as two or three sites on a single
network in 1979, expanded to 15 in 1980, to 150 in 1981, to 400 in 1982, to
millions in 2003.

Who Created Usenet
Two Duke University graduate students in North Carolina, Tom Truscott and
Jim Ellis, came up with the idea of hooking computers together to exchange
information with the UNIX community. The first news software, called 'A'
News was built by Steve Bellovin, another Duke student. As the news volume
increased exponentially, the limited functionality of 'A' News was replaced
by a newer version called 'B' News in 1981, developed by Mark Horton and
Matt Glickman. 'B' News was followed by an improved version naturally called
'C' News in 1987 which was created by Geoff Collyer and Henry Spencer.
Nowadays, there are numerous software packages for news management. Users
can access the newsgroups and their content using a constantly increasing
number of newsreader applications.

Hmmmm..... Basically it looks like Usenet was started in 1979. According
to these they were just University networks to start.

I think that was called Arpanet, or something like that.

I don't think computer systems from back then are very relevant to "casual"
usage of recent years, though.

Was Arpa net and Darpa net. I was on Arpa Net in about 1981 range. We were
fed from Stanford, I think, via another company near us in Milpitas, Ca. We
had sold our Building to Xerox when they bought Shugart Associates as we
were between Building 4 and 5 in Sunnyvale. Dang I is old.

----------------------

Nah, Bill... you aren't that old. In fact, you're still a cub.

Usenet, Rime-Net, Hair-Net.... they're all light years ahead of what we had
when I entered the workforce -- scratching crude pictures and symbols on
boulders and rolling them from cube to cube! "Rock-n-roll" was fast, cheap,
and required little OJT. For short notes, a fist-size rock would do. My head
still throbs in memory of all the jokes and chain-rocks that whizzed around
our community.

Of course, rock-n-roll found its way from the office to society in general,
and then parents were faced with the challenge of figuring out the rock
symbols their teenagers devised and used among themselves. (There was no
respect for convention even back in the day.)

Once a technology has become entrenched, troglodytes will hold onto to it
forever. As I visit the major cities of the U.S., I'm pleased to note that
the denizens still adhere to the old ways, as evidenced by bricks whizzing
through the air at political rallies and large, flamboyant messages posted
on brick walls, alleyways, bridge pilings, stationary boxcars, subway
tunnels... almost any highly-visible, vertical surface invites
correspondence.

Boy, what excitement filled the place when someone introduced the technique
of using a stylus to press cuneiform patterns pressed into moist clay
tablets. Very neat, but talk about slow! We had to let them cure before we
could send over to the other cubes in our office or to other cave complexes.
And, as we later learned, every technological advance in communications
created a buracracy and new jobs. Cuneiform writing wasn't easy (it took a
while to learn to speak Phoenecian and the Ugarit alphabet), so every
complex ended up with a HRD department for training the workers. Then we had
to develop specialist for archiving. If someone sent you a note and you
wanted to refer to it later, all you had to do was run down to the stacks,
where all the notes were categorized by subject, or by sent date, or by last
update, or by author, or by recipient. (We seem to have not advanced to far
on that evolutionary path, have we?)

As I progressed in my career, we witnessed communication fads come and go.
Smoke signals were pretty cool, and you could send them over long distance
(much easier than rocks!) but when health-nicks caught wind of the risks
involved, they instituted "no smoking in public places" policies, which
damped that technological advance. Pounding on hollow logs and later
skin-covered drums was neat at first. All the nerds who knew how to drum
were snapped up by companies and drumming became "cool," but as that more
and more people jumped into the act and that technology proliferated, the
airwaves became cluttered. We were always having our messages intercepted,
and too many people online simultaneously clogged the network. The feds put
the kibosh on that with HIPPA, since it's hard to maintain confidentiality
in the open forum of drum messaging.

Fads came and went... papyrus, parchment, paper... then along came Guglielmo
Marconi, Claude Chappe and Samuel Morse, Alexander Graham Bell, John Logie
Baird, and all those braniacs who ushered in the paperless workplaces that
we all enjoy today.

Al Gore added structure and elegance to electronic communications when he
and Ali McGraw (or was it Tipper), invented the Internet. And that's where
we find ourselves today. Don't get too settled on this "Internet" thing. I'm
sure it's just a passing fad, and soon we'll all be abuzz with
"simul-thought-casting" or something else.

Nobody has any problem with that. The problem is that you haven't clearly
identified where your "off site content" is coming from, and that's just a
misrepresentation. If you clearly label the post that come from the usenet
with the group they're coming from, and allow only members to post through
so we're not bombarded by any spam that might be targeted to your site, I
don't think you'll have much problems from here.

Otherwise, you're just trying to jump start a site with content that's not
yours.
