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 to news gateway, why?
A: As it is stated in our disclaimer, 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: Do I have to use a newsreader to
access your newsgroups?
A: No, for our regular plan ( web.uncensorednewsfeed.com
) users only, we have a Web Gateway both for PC users and WebTV users. All that is
required is a web browser. For all other users, the Web Browser is currently not
available. One is currently being beta tested and we are hoping to add it soon

Q: How will your charge appear on
my credit card statement?
A: To protect your privacy, any charges will
discreetly appear as CCBill.com *TBM newsfeeds on your credit card statement.

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
uncensorednewsfeed.com.

Q: Some articles that I post from
uncensorednewsfeed.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.

A: First, check that you entered the correct username
and password. If you forgot your username and/or password, email webmaster@uncensorednewsfeed.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.
