r/usenet - Usenet Discussion

Brand new user looking for any tips. In USA and primary is media and software. Setting up on Synology with SBNZBD. Would love to get into DrunkenSlug but not seeing any open registrations.

New user here. I just bought NZBgeek and NinjaCentral. Both give similar results but most of my nzb’s from Geek fails but Ninja’s success rate is 100%. Can someone explain to me like I’m 5. Was my geek purchase just waste of money?

Hello. I am new to this group so hopefully this is okay. I was wondering if anyone knows what the best active promotion is to subscribe to Easynews. I saw links in other posts for $1.99 however they do not work when I try to subscribe. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Good Morning all,

I could use some help. Newsgroupdirect doesn’t send any confirmation emails and support seems to have stopped replying. I used the search and see that there are other similar posts. Recommendations on what to do?

So I just got hit with an automatic subscription renewal with Eweka, had zero heads-up that it was coming. No email, no reminder, nothing. I only found out when I was already charged for another full year.

After more than 15 years I joined easynews again. My favorite client in the old days was newsleecher and I took advantage of its SuperSearch feature. My news provider at the time was giganews. I just visited newsleecher official site and found out that the latest final build goes back to 2016 and the beta build goes back to 2019, and I cant find the forums anymore. So I am curious is the client dead or still a good option?

This only started recently for me, maybe within the last few days. Tried multiple NZBs, both old and newer/popular ones. A lot of them fail during download or end up incomplete through my provider, but the same things seem to work fine from other indexers like DrunkenSlug.

Working on it. Looks like a script got hung and started going crazy with the database. Could cause some people’s accounts to not authenticate properly.

I received an email that Newsgroup Ninja is increasing their prices another $2/month. Has anyone else received this?

Came back after being away for a week and realized my Usenet setup basically stalled while I was gone.

Using newsbin pro trial.

Do not use UsenetExpress or NewsDemon. They will randomly change your password with no comment, email, or nothing from support.

Hi guys… As mentioned, I mailed Ninja admins four days ago requesting an alternate payment option. But there has been no response from them. Can’t access the discord either as it needs a paid account. I also read somewhere that after my free trial expires, my account will be disabled rendering me unable to even subscribe? Is there any alternate platform to contact the admins of NC? Here on reddit or anywhere else?

* I haven’t been on the indexer recently and now the server is inaccessible. Anyone in the loop and knows what’s going on?

For context, the approximate yearly costs are:

Just had to cancel NZBgeek because they kept “flagging” my account and cutting me off
