Agent and OE are newsreaders. They are not "sources of information".
Giganews is a "source", as you put it. Agent and OE are tools to read
that source.
Nothing more. Without a "source" (server), Agent and OE are useless to
you. Grabit is just another loser setup for the clueless.
If Agent and OE are using the same server as a "source" then you will
see the same info, for the most part. OE may screw with it a bit.

/Looks at my tute... I don't see where it says to load 5 zips in the
one post... It states very clearly to post each zip/rar as a separate
entity.
One post, one attached zip/rar.
You didn't read the bit about splitting the zips/rars using Winrar
first?
The 1.8 meg zip is the one that is the biggest problem.
And posting zips to Usenet gets you listed on websites like Replayer.
Makes you easier to track. Use rars.

And there it is... buuuuuuuuut...
"Your" guidelines?? Giganews and Usenet don't give a crap about YOUR
guidelines.
Oh pulease... !
If it is way oversize, it is way oversize. Dumb posting is just that,
dumb posting.
No amount of "but I did it out of the goodness of my heart" is going
to make any difference to Giganews and their posting rules.
If Giganews is having a bad hair day, you could lose your account if
you kept doing that.
Giganews have a short fuse when it comes to their posting rules.

Just because it limps onto a receiving server, does not instantly make
it all ok... k?!
We're trying to teach you, and others, stuff that keeps this group
functioning. And keeps your account alive through intelligent posting.
Let's say you get a little more of a clue and stop posting everything
in one hit?
Giganews will not love you for doing it how you are doing it.

How will someone know what they didn't get, if they didn't see it in
the first place??
The chicken and the egg thing isn't working for me...

Do you understand a little more now?
We are trying to help.
Making excuses when all you need to do is follow the bouncing ball is
not helping you.

Don't think She was listening, Hopper.
