I posted an OT jokes type post yesterday, computer error haikus, but it
never showed up in here at all.  I had crossposted it to a few of my
favorite groups because its a pain in the a.s to do it seperately for
each one.  Are crossposts automatically blocked here?

Nope! But I did not see your post.

Hmm. Not usually.

Some newservers block crossposts when there are too many groups listed.
A common number considered too many is 5. Anything more is considered
spam. How many groups did you try crossposting to?  It could be your own
newserver that prevented it from going anywhere if that is their policy.

four at most... hmmmm, and it showed up in one of them, a moderated one
at that.

 If Error Messages Were Haiku:

A file that big?
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.

 The Web site you seek
 cannot be located
 but endless more exist

 Chaos reigns within.
 Reflect, repent and reboot.
 Order shall return.

 Aborted effort:
 Close all that you have.
 You ask way too much.

 First snow, then silence.
 This thousand dollar screen dies
 so beautifully.

 With searching comes loss
 And the presence of absence:
 "My Novel" not found.

 The Tao that is seen
 Is not the true Tao, until
 You bring fresh toner.

 Windows NT crashed.
 I am the Blue Screen of Death.
 No one hears your screams.

 Stay the patient course
 Of little worth is your ire
 The network is down

 A crash reduces
 Your expensive computer
 To a simple stone.

 Yesterday it worked
 Today it is not working
 Windows is like that

 Three things are certain:
 Death, taxes and lost data
 Guess which has occurred.

 You step in the stream,
 but the water has moved on.
 This page is not here.

 Out of memory.
 We wish to hold the whole sky,
 But we never will.

 Having been erased,
 The document you're seeking
 Must now be retyped.

 Rather than a beep
 Or a rude error message,
 These words: "File not found."

 Serious error.
 All shortcuts have disappeared.
 Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

Well, at least someone saw them this time :)

I enjoyed them a lot myself.

Not so I've ever noticed!  (Witness the religious nut who
wants to be sure we all know how to get to Heaven - he seems
to be cross-posting to half the newsgroups on Usenet!)
