Hey bug, I'd like to see your images properly but it seems I mustn't have
your font.
Everything shows in your post as Arial.

Can you post it here, or let me know where I can get it. Cheers! :)

I think bug posts in iso-8859-2, which is used for Central European
languages. Change your MSOE configuration to use Courier New (or
whatever) for "Central European" or "Eastern European" or "iso-8859-2"
or "Latin-2" or whatever it calls that character set.

Cheers,
Philip

but bug's ascii-arts doesn't contain any of isolatin2 specific chars,
they are clean ascii, so there is almost no difference, what encoding

True. But some email client use a different font depending on the
encoding the message uses... and if bug's messages say "Content-type:
text/plain;charset=iso-8859-2" then the program will use the "Central
European" font regardless of which characters are actually in the
message.

everyone knows that Lucida Console is much better than

Besides bug's AsciiArts are made in LC, so this is 
the best font to view them.

I get a problem with BUG's Posts because of the Encoding...
Just change the encoding to Western European or whatever
your default encoding is where you have the COURIER NEW or
any such MONOSPACED font...

no, bug has got to be posting in arial, otherwise my newsreader would pick
it up [OE6] I've set the newreader to display all fixedwidth fonts and
newsgroup posts in courier new/lucida console [respectively] yet bug's posts
still come through in arial.

why would this happen, if they are posted in a fixed width font????

could be a "bug" i suppose but [no pun intended] as everybody elses view
fine.

Do you get enjoyment trolling this newsgroup? You don't even post ASCII
never mind talk about it, just go back to wherever you come from and sort
out that really shit site of yours.

You have no other meaning in your existence other than being a
fucking-little-boring-pain-in-the-arse, I'm sure most here if not ALL agree
with me on this one.

btw, bet you haven't even got a dick, you fucking lesbian-man-wannabe. lmao

He's posting in plain ASCII, not HTML. There's no way to specify a font
from his end; it's all on your end.

Check the newsgroup headers, specifically the "Content-type" header and
look for "Charset". See what happens when different charsets are
specified. I'll try to test it.

> why would this happen, if they are posted in a fixed width font????

Because you set the fonts only for Western European and bug is posting
with a Central European charset.
