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 skimmed the discussions below.
I also know that Lugnet members have a username and password. One would
wonder then why the NNTP service simply doesn't require a user to login?
I know this can be done, because I operate one such NNTP server and it keeps
the Spam and bad people out, and also doesn't require cumbersome "approval"
messages for every post.
