Hello August,

 DH>> And this is another type of message of no value to FidoNet...and
 DH>> in any case, what "chat"? This is an echo, not a chat room.

 AA> Those are system messages that Stas is probably working on

I have been thinking this also but haven't mentioned it while telegram is starting up.

 AA> But personally, I find those are interesting notes of USER
 AA> activity. A monthly rules dump with no indication of who is
 AA> even lurking is less inspiring.

In fidonet we also have lurkers. They are invisible until they choose to write in an area. They may silently dissappear if they decide an area is not for them.

 Ttyl :-),
