You need to re-read this thread, never have i said that all nntp traffic should be stopped, and never have i said they 'all newsgroups users are at fault'
So no i didnt tar you at all, and if i did it would have been quickly followed by feathers
Maybe i had better repeat myself for you..

Can't have it both ways, either accept that there is only so much bandwidth in the world and limit yourselves, or dont moan when you are forcefully slowed down or stopped from pillaging it all.
Frankly you are lucky i dont get to make the decisions .. if i did you people using 200gb+ of bandwidth a month would be looking for another service provider.
First we had slow connections, then we got fast ones with a useage cap, now we have faster ones with traffic shaping...
Note the trend, bandwidth is not free and the more we use as a group the more NTL will have to impose restrictions and or increase prices.
