i think this might have been posted befor but this and other news groups are appearing an a comercial website.
Don't know.... do you mind google doing it?
It probably is a little cheeky, but then again it adds an alternate access method that may be useful for some.
If you do you can set to no archive. But these smaller web sites seem to ignore this.
Yeah, but the broken threads are a PITA, hence I kill everything with diybanter in the message id or ref. At least some google posters know how to post without breaking threads.
They quite often don't archive for long either though - once the message has scrolled off its cache its gone. That is not really any different from standard ISP newsfeeds (which also ignore "no archive").
With google it is there for good unless you tell it otherwise.

I don't see any broken threads due to diybanter.com at the moment.
I just went and had a look at diybanter.com, and it seems to be explaining quite clearly what it's doing and how it links to the usenet newsgroups:
