I don't want to use the web client. It's clunky. With NNTP, I can read posts offline, choose my NNTP client (thus finding a UI that is right for me), etc. Thanks for the info though. Now I know that throwing $10 at lugnet won't fix the problem. I (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.admin.nntp)

See this post: (URL) note where FUT is set. Then see the two posts below it in the thread. One honors the FUT and one (by Dan, who I can't imagine would actually make a mistake) doesn't. Do we have a small bug here somewhere or was the FUT set wrong (...) (21 years ago, 9-Oct-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

I believe the recent "distributed denial of service attack" was SWEN.
