Dear Mr. Barna, You seem to have some trouble understanding how the different services of an Internet Service Provider are operated. We at Ping do *not* censor any unfavourable messages posted in our user-newsgroups nor anywhere else on our newsserver. I think that you can find enough examples proving that by checking the different postings made over the last days. As your account has been blocked for the reasons we are all aware off, this actually entails that with that account you temporarily have no access to our services. This includes our POP-network, but also our mailservers, and also our newsserver. That is the reason why you could not post your messages, not because we are blocking any messages from you personally. Altough I understand that you are upset because of the viewpoint we take in regard to our policy announcement, I would like to ask you to verify your comments before you post them. Sincerely, Geert DeBecker ___________________________________________________________ Geert DeBecker E-mail:mailto:Geert@ping.be General Manager Web: http://www.ping.be Interleuvenlaan, 5 Info: 070 233 772 B-3001 Leuven Support: 070 233 773 BELGIUM Fax: 070 233 771 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
