 It is. You just said it is a "'nym", which means that it is not your real 
 name, thereby violating RFC 1036, and civilized manners.

 That's one reason why it is forged. You are using a top level domain with 
 no authorization. The fact that the domain is _currently_ not assigned is 
 no excuse at all.

 That's what X-No-Archive: yes _means_. I am not surprised at seeing that 
 you don't know that.

 I'm not surprised at noticing that you don't know what "NNTP service" is. 
 Whatever ways it uses to get its data doesn't make it an NNTP service, if 
 it simply does not offer NNTP service. 
  
 Naturally, I'm not trying to convince you. I'm only posting for the 
 benefit of people who wish to act in a civilized and constructive manner 
 and just didn't know what that means on Usenet.
