Subj : New node To : All From : Michael Grant Date : Wed Oct 24 2001 02:00 pm Jesus /CHRIST/ people!!!! What the F*ck does it matter where he is listed??? Stewart, you don't have to jump on every single frigging new member that comes along!!! If he's in Florida, and can be listed there, WHY THE HELL SHOULD IT MATTER *IF* HE'S LISTED THERE? Anyone in Fidonet can feed him echomail /regardless/ of where he's listed!!! R12 members such as Stewart disgust me with their constant fighting to try and grab every new node that comes along. Why do you go so out of your way to try and snatch up every potential new node? I've been a member of three other FTN's for longer than I've been in Fidonet, and /none/ of the members in those networks give a damn where any particular node is listed; so long as the node gets listed! Power is the only reason you seek to go against the traditional listings; that's the only answer there can be; you are power-hungry, plain and simple! Does /anyone/ give two seconds to let the potential /new node/ say what he wants??? Looking at this frigging **ZOO** over a simple request, you may have just turned him off Fidonet /completely/!! --- GoldED/386 3.0.1-dam3 * Origin: MikE'S MaDHousE: WelComE To ThE AsYluM! (1:134/11) .
