SnoopZ Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Supernews is the 1 to go for this is very popular and cheap, Astraweb used to be good but their stuff gets taken down too quickly now, but if Tweaknews is cheaper and good then you may as well try that, i get my full 60Mb speed on Supernews though all the time on 5 connections or less. http://www.supernews.com/?gclid=CPPCv4nus7kCFU_MtAodISgADg Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1175017-newshosting/#findComment-595923967 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoopZ Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Excuse me?! no need to be rude when someone is trying to help you. It is NOT a refer link it is the standard special offer link same goes for Astraweb, Google 'supernews special offer' and it should be the top link, and i have used it for several years just like Astraweb.

I was curious what other people thought here. To test the waters. Just like I am the only one that knows a Newsgroup provider that does no DMCA. I can prove it too. Just give me any nzb file that has been DMCA for you. I will download it from a few weeks old all the way up to a few years old. Though I don't have to. I will only do it if someone wants me to.

SnoopZ Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 You asked for help, and people offered help and all you can do is be rude accusing people of using refer links when they're not, charming. As for Newshosting Supernews and Astranews are far better. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1175017-newshosting/#findComment-595924107 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhh, did you ask what people use? Did they refer you to the site? Then why wouldn't you use their referral link? That's kind of how that works. 100% of the time it has no effect on your sign up (sometimes YOU even get something extra from it), and usually credits the person who referred you, since they did, a little something. If you can't be so respectful as to give the person who refers you a referral, then remove the referral string and shut up. +InsaneNutter 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1175017-newshosting/#findComment-595924195 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scam implies they tried to trick you somehow that may negatively affect you, but it won't. Or it could just be a case of giving a fellow forum member who DID refer you a little credit. If you don't need anyone's help and are so proud of the fact that you know what none of us do, then why did you make the topic in the first place? You're also skirting the rules with your wording, so you may want to be careful. +LogicalApex 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1175017-newshosting/#findComment-595924417 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're already a Usenet expert then why did you post this thread?... Keep in mind, if you're calling yourself an expert then you're far from it. An expert never has to use the word when referring to themselves, everyone else will. You'll never hear me refer me myself as an expert with computers, but you can expect to hear anyone who knows me in person to say it. Being an expert is proven to others not bestowed upon yourself when you think you've read enough pages on Google to mindlessly spit out terms. Everyone on here is a volunteer so you should respect their time by not creating useless threads or berating them for answering... max22, SnoopZ, Lee G. and 1 other 4 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1175017-newshosting/#findComment-595924443 Share on other sites More sharing options...
