repost missing post?

Today I responded to four people who had answered my question about
desktop.ini files. Three of my responses made it to the newsgroup. One (the
first one, sent an hour ago) didn't. I don't see it in OE or at the
Microsoft newsgroup website.

At what point should one repost a missing post?

Thank you!

I see only three responses from you in that thread, so the missing one
has gone off to Never-Never Land, apparently. You should feel free to
post it again. The worst thing that could happen is duplicate posts,
which is not a capital offense.

This happens to many of us. Microsoft has filters that sometimes remove
posts for no discernible reason. Because MS seems determined to phase
out NNTP newsgroups in favor of web-based forums, it's not likely that
it'll do anything about the filters.

Eventually, you should be able to find your post using Advanced Search
in Google Groups, but Google doesn't seem to have crawled
microsoft.public.windowsxp.general yet today.

Thank you, Lem! I did repost, and that one made it through. The first one
didn't appear anywhere.

It is MVPs who have been made moderators by M$ are deleting messages
from newsgroups. Most of my messages gets deleted and I suspect it is
either Pig-Bear, Ken Blake, Bruce Pig-Hagan or Sheehan Stanley. I
strongly suspect Sheehan deleting my messages. However, I feel
gratified that my messages are being read and that are effective enough
to get at them at the heart of their nervous system where it hurts
most. What more can I ask?.

Calling MVPs as Microsoft Valuable Pig is a serious offense;
Calling MVPs as scum-sucking Pigs is an offense;
Calling yourself as Pig-MVP is also an offense;
Calling Bruce Pig-Hagan as Dirty Old B@st@rd is an offense;
Questioning an MVP is an offense;
Questioning MVPs definition of a computer is a serious offense
especially in connection with OEM software;

So there are many instances why posts are deleted.

Jo-Anne's messages got deleted because she tried to give credits or to
thank somebody who wasn't an MVP. This is even a very very serious
offense punishable by public floggings.

I hope you get the idea.

Idiot! There are no moderators in the newsgroups and MVP's can't delete
messages on the newsgroup servers. Your posts are being deleted because
you're an ignorant moron.

The idea of my original post was to provoke a response from Microsoft
Valuable Pigs but it seems they are all asleep at the moment. There
time zone is not in sync with the rest of the working population on this
planet mainly due to the fact that they are octogenarians and scrounging
on taxpayers to finance their hobby!

Hi, Jim,

If you see only one post addressed to Alan from me, then the first one is
still missing, since I reposted. (By this time there are lots more posts
than four.)
